Prosecution for illegal drone use

We have just had the first prosecution for illegal drone use in the UK. The man in question flew a 7kg drone over major London landmarks and was fined £1,800 (around $2,700) and was banned from flying drones for two years. The drones were also confiscated.

The BBC take is here:

(I’m posting, as it relates to a previous thread on AMBA and drones.)
