Doesn't make sense, does it.
It is not as if just one person 'saw' this thing after all.

Did the Police, Army, Airport workers, members of the public see anything or didn't they?
Were there lots of witnesses, or do did nobody really see anything?
How can so many people and detecting equipment all be wrong?

I don't get this at all.

And if it wasn't a drone people thought they were watching and hearing, what was it?

Re: Gatwick Airport: Drone sightings cause delays

Pair held and released over Gatwick drone say they feel 'violated'

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/...iolated-arrest

Speaking from the couple’s doorstep on Monday afternoon, window fitter Gait, 47, said: “As you can probably imagine, we are feeling completely violated. Our home has been searched and our privacy and identity completely exposed. Our names, photos, and other personal information has been broadcast throughout the world.”

Breaking down in tears as he stood next to his 54-year-old wife, he said: “We are deeply distressed as are our family and friends and we are currently receiving medical care. The way we were initially perceived is disgusting, although those that knew us didn’t doubt us for a second.

“Post release without charge or further action, we are totally overwhelmed by the support we have received from the people all over the world and we would like to thank every single one that has done that. We would ask that the press please respect our privacy and leave us to try and get through Christmas as best we can.”
I feel for them .....

How can the police have got the identity of culprits so wrong .....

This naming and shaming by the media before they have been charged, or even prosecuted in court, has got to stop......This is not 'Freedom of speech' it's false accusation and it can destroy innocent people's lives. It should be illegal in the same way that preaching religious hatred is....

It said in a paper I saw today, that one of the couple's neighbours had alerted the police simply because they had seen him flying a model helicopter from his front drive recently!
