The Royal Family, particularly King Charles III, had a major scare last month after reportedly seeing drones flying over the states. The Sun reported that the drones were traced back to a man sitting in a nearby car, which led to concern about what kind of information they were trying to get.
That’s why King Charles III requested new restrictions, and he can sleep soundly after new no-fly restrictions were approved for his Sandringham estate. In addition, Britain’s Transport Secretary, Heidi Alexander, signed off on the order to restrict commercial aircraft from flying below 2,000 feet at Sandringham.
The restrictions were in place solely for reasons of public safety and security. However, Royal air travel, visitors’ plans, and police and emergency service planes are exempt from the order. Fortunately, the Royal Family can rest from the invasion of privacy.
“In view of the need for security for members of the Royal Family and other dignitaries staying at or visiting Sandringham House and at the request of the security services, it has been agreed by the Civil Aviation Authority and the Department for Transport that flying should be restricted in the vicinity of that location for reasons of public safety and security.”
