Hes convinced his plane was in that collision. The plane did land safely. It was examined and allowed to continue on its flights later yesterday afternoon. But the police are taking the report seriously. They issued a statement saying an object believed to be a drone had struck the front of the aircraft, and theyve launched an investigation. The british have been struggling with drones like everybody else. They are everywhere but theyre not supposed to be around airports for obvious reasons, and there are strict penalties, but, of course, first you have to find the drone n whoever was flying it.
