Drone Fine Cut in Half
from Cork News Today | 2 Min News | The Daily News Now!
A licensed drone pilot got hit with a four thousand euro fine for flying over a Snow Patrol concert and near Limerick Prison—both major no-fly zones. The Irish Aviation Authority called it a serious safety risk, especially with crowds. Though convicted on multiple charges, including flying too high and too close to people, his lawyer argued he thought he had permission and was practicing for a commercial venture. The judge agreed the original fine was excessive, slashing it to six hundred euros—and waived court costs. A cautionary tale: even with a license, rules still apply, and sometimes the punishment gets adjusted. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
