Have you ever flown a drone? Have you ever flown a drone at night?? I have and you can not see anything.
Yeah, I fly drones as a business. I have 4 drones in my fleet from a small mavic 3 pro to a $28,000 custom 6’ cinema rig.

I think I know what I’m speaking of.

Like I said, you can fly a drone at night, it’s just a matter of if you want to see anything or not.

Back in October I had a client who wanted a shot of a custom home with the full moon above the mountains. I pre-programmed my flight path to the spot I wanted to shoot from as I couldn’t use the camera for visuals. So again, flight at night can be done.

Exactly. Anybody who thinks we don’t know exactly what these drones are and who they belong to is an absolute idiot. We can track individual people using satellites….we can’t track what/where these drones are doing/going??? GMAFB. We have some seriously stupid people in this country if they believe anything they are being told right now.

The bigger question is why are our govt officials lying to us? I mean, people like Senators who are telling us these are coming from an Iranian mothership off our coast, and they got this info from very highly placed sources. It’s very obviously all disinformation, and once again, the timing is too coincidental.
To distract stupid Americans from Ukraine and Syria.

Did anyone see that they arrested 2 individuals yesterday who flew a drone a little too close to Logan airport? It seems law enforcement used “advanced drone tracking software” to find the individuals controlling the drones.

Amazing that same tech can’t be used on the ones in NJ.

They 100% know what the drones are and where they were launched from. None of this is a secret, it’s just a secret to the public. Check out Dedrone tech. Axon just bought the tech.

Interesting....



Prior to 2020 I would laugh at this and call this an utter bs conspiracy. Now that we know virtually every conspiracy has been true this is totally feasible. We aren’t as safe as we assume. And it makes sense the government would hide this from us.

Nah, it doesn't explain the various previous incursions like the 17 straight days at Langley AFB last December where this same thing happened. They had to relocate the F-22 fleet out of fears of destruction as they had no idea what was happening.

Exactly, this has been going on for a while.

There was also the Chinese man who flew the drone over Vandenberg Air Force base and was taking photos of the base and its layout.

That’s fair and I’m not going to debate much but our government works in silos. It’s not like they have full transparency with each other, nor the public. A drone operation from last year isn’t the same as a drone from this year.

Regardless, this isn’t normal and they easily have the tech to determine exactly who is controlling the drones. The narrative of “we don’t know” is laughable!
