Drone alb dream: Munich Airport in the chaos - police cripple!
At Munich Airport there are once again turbulent times: Current drone sightings ensure considerable vertebrae in air traffic. As the crown reports, after several incidents, have faced the challenge of identifying a suspect. On Friday morning, a 41-year-old hobby drone pilot was caught in a fresh act when he had his newly acquired drone flying in the ban on flight. Fortunately, the federal police could intervene in good time and put the man, who is very likely to expect a five -digit fine.
As the Süddeutsche Zeitung Complemented, the situation around Munich Airport leaves a shell not only with hobbyists. Due to several sightings of unknown drones, around 3,000 passengers were stranded on Friday night, and on Saturday there were even 6,500. The German air traffic control (DFS), which ceased flight operations as a precaution, was responsible for this. From 10:18 p.m. on Thursday, the runways were gradually blocked, which led to several unusual flights until midnight. There were further restrictions on Friday evening.
Drone alarms at the airport
The situation escalated when the federal police reported two drones of drones in the area of the North and South Railway. Eyewitnesses also reported up to six larger drones that were spotted on Thursday evening. Bavaria's Prime Minister Markus Söder commented when he found that the drone sightings were probably not due to a stray hobby object. Joachim Herrmann from the CSU described the incidents as alarming and announced that it would expand the legal possibilities of the police. An early draft law that should allow the shooting of drones in the event of acute danger is already in the works.
The drone flights over security-critical institutions have become a recurring topic in several EU and NATO countries in recent months, while Russia rejects corresponding allegations. It is interesting in this context that the DFS has already recorded 144 disorders from drones at airports this year - in the previous year it was only 113. A clear indication of the trend to ignore the drone -loving hobbyists.
Notes for hobby drone pilots
In Terminal 1 of the airport, even 400 field beds were set up due to the increased number of passengers, and in Terminal 2 there were calm zones with deck chairs. During the inconvenience, the waiting ceilings, drinks and snacks were offered. Who would have thought that a simple hobby can have such far -reaching consequences for air traffic like flying drones?
