Buses spell out NHS to thank medics

Drivers at Brighton and Hove Buses’s Lewes Road garage spent time yesterday getting buses in position to spell out NHS to thank the medics caring for coronavirus patients.

The tricky manoeuvres were the idea of bus company employees who decided themselves to show their appreciation and support for NHS staff during the coronavirus pandemic.

Many NHS staff have been using Brighton and Hove and Metrobus’ buses to get to work during the lockdown.

    assuming that this person had a suitable permit and flyer ID.
    they prob broke several laws.
    Never fly closer than 150m to built-up areas. Never fly directly over a built-up area.
    Never fly more than 400ft (120m) above the surfaceand stay well away from aircraft, airports and airfields
    Drone pilots could face on the spot fines of up to £1,000 for offences such as not having or displaying a flyer ID on drones weighing over 249g, not being able to provide proof of permissions and exemptions and, of course, for flying dangerously and/or in restricted locations.
