I ❤ LONDON

[@Aerial_Bruce]

There something for everyone in London that's what I love so much.

[@morseanen]

Great footage! How hard is it to get permission to fly in a restricted area? I have registered my drone to fly in London, but intend to fly in permitted areas without the need for authorisation, goodness there are quite interesting ones.

[@Aerial_Bruce]

It's not hard to get the permission just a lot of planning and pre scouting to make sure you know exactly what areas and buildings you want to fly around. 🪰 The form for NATS isn't that bad and then you have to phone the police too and give them a lot of detail on the day.

[@OlegSheverda]

Of course You have your manner how to show buildings. It's very effectively. But I never saw drone footage skyscrapers in the London center, as Central Point or Millbank. Has London a restricted area for drone footage?

[@Aerial_Bruce]

Yes most of central London is restricted airspace. You have to put in a request to the UK aviation authority and also get police clearance. It's a bit of effort and have to be fully registered drone pilot. But I love capturing things that are unique or there isn't much footage of and put my stamp on it

[@OlegSheverda]

@@Aerial_Bruce May I disagree with you, Mr. Bruce? It would be very interesting if your artistic technique was applied to the old good Centre Point. I believe that an architectural object has an indefinite number of points of view. But all this is conjecture. The law is the law, after all.

[@toni4729]

Not exactly the nicest day.

[@Aerial_Bruce]

Yes it was a cloudy week but I actually quiet like the clouds it adds a bit of texture and mood to the footage. Unfortunately you only get a window of time you have applied for too with the aviation authority and that's what that week gave me so made the most of it
