UK to bring in drone registration

I'd love to see noise regulation. Nothing more irritating than being somewhere peaceful and beautiful when a couple of douchey drone flyers decide to ruin the quiet

"Noise regulation" is just a euphemism for "ban drones" since drones are always noisy.

Well then, ban drones.

This is why I usually carry a toilet roll.

I am all for reducing noise in our environment. But you hardly hear my copters if a car or motorcycle passes. Most AC makes more noise.

I don't understand this irrational phobia. Is the fact that it is flying triggering some deeper mechanisms in the brain?

It reminds me of my two year old's reaction to wasps.

The gp isn't expressing fear, but annoyance. As you well know but choose to misrepresent.

You are a nuisance. Your comment reminds me of a two year old's reaction to being asked to stop running around screaming.

Most AC isn't in secluded places of outstanding natural beauty, where drones increasingly are.

And many ACs break noise rules (often 40db in residential areas).
