Man caught flying drone over Falcons practice

Lol. Jesus. If the Falcons lose, it's already debatable how legitimate the win was for New England, and the game hasn't even kicked off yet.

Had some serious recording equipment on it, too:

Kinda related, Homeland Security escorted a plane pulled banner away from downtown.

Evidently the whole area has been declared a no fly zone, save for commercial flights of course.

It's been known that the Patriots have been utilizing a drone for sometime (as are other teams), I found BB's comment in this article from 2015 funny. :lol:

A few weeks ago at OTAs, when Patriots coach Bill Belichick was asked about the purpose of the drone, he was typically evasive, saying he didn't know what the benefit was.

So we now have Backpackgate and Dronegate to add to the list. :229031_shrug:

Did this drone have a hoodie?

i find it funny and no longer coincidental that before each Superbowl now the Pats have been involved in something.. and SOMETHING always happens. So after a while at what point does coincidence go away and is no longer just that? :irishdrinkers: :irishdrinkers:

In my line of work.

Once a aberration.

Twice a coincidence.

Three times a trend.

4 times a problem that needs to be looked into.

As a guy who would be enforcing the no fly zone today if I were at work, just a reminder to everyone that the Super Bowl, RNC/DNC conventions, and presidential airspace are always temporary flight restricted airspace. All of you private pilots and drone operators should remember to check the FAA published NOTAMS.

This is a very big deal in my opinion and I'm stunned that I'm not seeing massive, widespread reports on it.

There is always something to question when the Patriots play...

Bostonians have been running covert operations since 1773, why would anyone be surprised.

Haha, good one Fog.
