Drone saga pantomime

-

The Gatwick Airport drone saga is developing into a pantomime.

There were more than 60 reports of drone sightings at Gatwick Airport. High-tech equipment was brought in but it failed to detect any drones.

But wait, police have identified two suspects. Oh no they haven't!

The suspects are innocent model aircraft enthusiast­s and they have been exonerated.

Another developmen­t - there may not have been any drones at all.

Perhaps some birds were misidentif­ied as drones. As I write, a broken drone has been found near the airport perimeter. Is it the culprit or is it just a case of fly-tipping?

I'm thinking of taking up clay pigeon shooting. If I can shoot a clay pigeon, I can shoot down a drone and I will offer my services to Gatwick Airport. I think I can fix the problem in two hours, rather than two days. Rex Hora, Earley
