UK government and big business has gone too far. We are fighting back, by exposing the imposters, and reporting the facts. #TheDroneResistance

@TheDroneSangoma @UAVHive @amazon What if Johnny lives in a children's home? Or he has crap parents? Anyway, why should Johnny's parents pay for @amazon's underwear delivery service?

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@TheDroneSangoma @UAVHive @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon At least provide some logic to your arguement Mr Sangoma. Otherwise we should simply take the word of @BALPApilots in their fraudulent airprox reports shouldn't we? I fear Richards friendship with you has biased your opinion on this one. I hope you are right
..time will tell...

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@TheDroneSangoma @amazon And sorry Gary, I'm not the kind of person who takes the attitude that we could have it worse. It's not like voting for a political party where you vote for the one who will f**k you least. We need to be able to hold them to account, and stop this narritive that UTM is for safety

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

Here you have it people. If you don't accept UTM being forced upon you by government, @amazon won't be able to deliver you your underwear by drone #WolfInSheepsClothing

@ResistanceDrone @drone_operators @NATS UTM is about communication: connecting drone pilots to airports and ANSPs, so that the sky can be opened to more creative drone use both now and in the future. If you don’t think communication and collaboration is key, the industry we all know and love won’t ever take off.

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@TheDroneSangoma @amazon What we want is for @altitudeangel to build the right UTM for us. They are sitting quiet about @NATS for obvious reasons - they are heavily conflicted. NATS say jump, AA say how high. Unless we hold AA to account, NATS will have an easy ride and we'll get the UTM we deserve

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

My gripe isn't actually with @altitudeangel as a company as they are generally good people. It's more about their conflicts of interest. There has been a complete lack of response from AA to @NATS recent statements which shows it clear as day. NATS call the shots

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@ramboslice__ @altitudeangel @drone_operators @NATS @ThalesUK @amazon If people don't start saying something now, it will be too late. Everyone will have to use it, I know that is pretty much set in stone. As for who pays, that is being decided now. Drone Registration part 2

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@ramboslice__ @drone_operators Why do you keep deleting and rewriting your tweets? It's okay to get things wrong. And no, it's not just about BVLOS. I'll put £10,000 on it if you want to take the bet?

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@NATS @rafredarrows Oh look 9 red drones...

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@NATS Who is responsible for this fiasco? NATS must have an approval rating from drone pilots worse than the @realDonaldTrump. Completely idiotic thing to do given your recent trip up with Andy Sage. The drone community is watching you, and we are waiting for our moment. Be careful ;)

[UAVHive @UAVHive]

@ADP_admin @NATS @drone_operators We've got a better game, the snake oil game, you win by using fear to sell UTM software solutions to gullible ministers at @transportgovuk.

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@gorilladrones @ramboslice__ @GazTheJourno @UAVHive @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon I am not against @altitudeangel as a company. I am simply against government led commercialisation of a product when it's not required. If there is a genuine safety risk, e.g. flights within aerodromes, then the aerodrome can use whatever tool (AA) they need to mitigate the risk

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@gorilladrones @GazTheJourno @ramboslice__ @UAVHive @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon Notifying these parties is fine. I have no problem with them being notified. The low level military phone number will take care of that. If GA pilots are flying that low: 1) You will have time to get out of the way, 2) They are acting recklessly and breaking the law

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@UAVHive @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon @CommonsSTC If NATS offer AA £50 million, and the staff a bunch of high salaries, they will sell. UTM will eventually become ATM, so why would NATS be stupid enough to let them threaten their space?

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@UAVHive Edit: "no current need for"

UTM will be needed once we have electronic conspicuity (i.e. collision avoidance), BVLOS regulations, and airspace sorted

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@ramboslice__ @UAVHive @gorilladrones @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon Seeing as this NATS app was built by AA and powered by AA data, why are NATS telling @CommonsSTC about how amazing their solution is? They are working together, how can you not see it?

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@UAVHive @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon You never heard of "good cop, bad cop"?
AA cannot say it because they will fold if they do. NATS are the front end of all of this and are doing the dirty work. Once the risks are gone and government force operators to use AA, NATS will buy them

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@ramboslice__ @GazTheJourno @gorilladrones @UAVHive @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon No, they are doing this because there isn't yet a business case for UTM. None of them are making money! So how can a free market create a business there is no need for? Simple: you use the safety card @TheDroneDealer what do you think?

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@GazTheJourno @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @UAVHive @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon No, there is a big difference. We should pay for services, not for access to airspace. The cost of services needed for safety reasons for Class G is negligible. If you consider UTM as a safety issue, then it changes everything and costs go up massively

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@UAVHive @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon Unfortunately they are in cahoots with NATS so I can't trust them. If we accept the safety argument for UTM, trust me, this will not end well. UTM is a commercial opportunity. If we allow them to sneak the safety argument in there, government will get involved (i.e. NATS)

[TheDroneResistance @ResistanceDrone]

@GazTheJourno @ramboslice__ @gorilladrones @UAVHive @dronelaws @NATS @altitudeangel @amazon So £250 a year for a PfCO doesn't cover it? Try looking at the CAA finances for drones, they already subsidise GA
