May 15th - Suspected drone disrupts and diverts Gatwick Airport flights

Flights from Gatwick Airport were halted this afternoon due to reports of drone activity close to the airspace.

At least 12 inbound flights were diverted away from Gatwick for almost an hour while an investigation took place into the suspected drone.

Gatwick is the busiest single-runway airport in the world, with little slack in the system when schedules unravel.
