Making yourself seen head to head with an Aircarft.
Mark Pugh replied to funnydan85's topic in Safety Matters
There is a theory "It's a big sky", so chances of getting hit are slim. We are tiny in the sky, IF you did see a plane coming, we are not fast enough to get out of the way, so the only real option is to quickly pull wing overs and make yourself more "see-able". NOTAM's are the only real advice. Better to put them in 24 hours early and not fly...than not put them in!!! -

Correct, so how do I get this added onto my Kobo?
-
No, there are other areas where there are no towns and houses, or unusual heights. It appears to show a maximum security prison has an exclusion zone up to 2200 feet and an 8km diameter column, with a Cat B prison nearby having no exclusion zone at all. In my ignorance and following my Kobo with updated airways, I would have happily flown closer to the prison at 1000 feet as it makes a great visual turnpoint. Labelled "EGR204-SFC-2200". AH, just found out, this restriction applies to helicopters only except Police ops.
-
I can see the restrictions, it's just EASY VFR shows so many more. Near airfields, every village has a surface to 1000 feet column, there are further and larger restrictions shown around certain ground structures, prisons, masts, etc. But these have never been seen before on my Kobo mini, so have a missed a setting I need to apply on the Kobo?

Thanks for all these replies, puts my mind at rest. Think I'll keep trying to fly as late as possible; but put minimum fuel in tank so less to put through lawn mower later! I just put my first "Gallery" onto the website (27th September 2018), hope to fly tomorrow, wind direction and speed good, but ground very wet here. I'm expecting wing to dry out quickly in flight, but after landing will have to hang to dry in my garage for a few days.

My last flight in September with Richard. Just a "bimble" around Worcestershire, flying over the Hadley Bowling Green Pub to get pictures for the Landlord. Have to wrap up warmer for any more flights this year!
