    i did not try to imply that the operator had an unreserved right to operate a drone.

    CASA is trying to deal with drones and has come up with the rules that you sited.

    RPAs under 2kg, though not requiring a complex licensing regime are restricted in where they can operate, as sited in your post.

    Commercial operators can gain more freedoms in terms of where they can operate an RPA but must obtain more complex licences. 

    Many operators of RPAs have a commercial licence from CASA and hence are able to fly where Felixstowe saw them.

    Anyone should be able to ask the RPA operator to identify themselves. From this information they can enquire of CASA whether the operator is licensed.

    CASA is interested in the public reporting the conduct of RPA operators. It is one of the largest source of leads that leads to prosecution of rogue operators
