i think the main reason to target the ABC is because of publicly funded , as in tax dollars pay for the fakeness
how long has this been going for? , seems like hours and hours
did a small amount of digging on battery life of 'professional' drones , max flying time i could find was 38mins. Granted a modified one would probably be more, but due to the length of this event , there are either multiple drones being used in a relay type system by one operator, multiple drones being used by multiple operators, or drones being used as a cover for something else that has shut the airport down.
a quick search reveals that a gas powered drone has about the same flight time (while carrying up to 15lbs) as their battery powered cousins (carrying camera only) and are significantly more expensive. Unladen and with a bigger gas tank certainly longer flight times are possible
my point is; no matter what system the operator(s) have in place , wouldn't you just follow a drone (with binoculars/physically) when time for battery change/new drone, to find the operators location. Repeating if necessary if multiple operators.
Limited flight time + length of shutdown = fucky
>He ALWAYS writes it on qmap with a missing "I".
not always eg;
#'s 9 11 17 23 39 46 66 92 110 1286
like your theory though
