Home Office, Police and CAA join together to act on drone crime

A special note on privacy
Quite understandably people can be concerned when they see a Drone flying near them or their property, concerned about safety but also privacy
Birdseye Aerial Views WILL NOT take intrusive images of you or your property.
Please contact paul@birdseye-views.co.uk if you have any concerns about your privacy. If you see a Drone near you or have been informed of the presence of a Drone and you think it might be from Birdseye Aerial Views, please let me know, we maintain records of our flight path and height.
