Yes, nice area. Weather was very hazy sunshine with wind at around 7MPH. Footage shot at ASO100 shutter 1000, no filters. Last time I flew there was autumn 2016. I dunno why I haven't bothered to fly it again until this morning.

On reflection, I don't think I like that edit above now that I've looked at it again. Too many rising fly-by shots. I think I might do a re-edit tomorrow. I took around 25 minutes of footage this morning so I have plenty of footage to work with.

Rare that's it not NT or some other restriction.

No, not NT. The place is fairly popular among drone enthusiasts. Since I took up droning at the start of 2015 I can count the number of other people I've come across flying their drones on just one hand and still have a finger spare (where the government got their figures from is anyone's guess). This place is one of those locations where I bumped into another drone pilot when I flew there in 2016. Today when I was leaving and getting in to my car another pilot showed up with a Parrot.
