Managed to get a video and pictures from the "grassy knoll" only went to lose signal 3 times but video will be on later tonight. Also Etihad video should be on within the hour. Cheers

that was my thought too - trees are a bit high, and remember what matters (to the law) is that you as the operator must be able to see the drone at all times - having that view obscured by trees is not allowed

Climb the tree. ;-)
 
A bit later than advertised look around the training facility and pictures of the campus, stadium and continued op arena. Been a busy few days as my wife is in hospital after under going a hip replacement operation today. Enjoy the video and sorry for the zoom issues with signal. Taking off from jrb secret knoll area cheers

Sisk's race against time to build Man City's new North Stand roof | Construction News

The football season may be drawing to a close for Manchester City Football Club, but inside the Etihad Stadium, a new challenge is on the horizon. Since

“On matchdays, fans could have been forgiven for thinking that four lucky employees were getting free passes to watch the game from the new stand, as they sat in the empty seats in their hi-vis vests. But with Manchester renowned for its downpours, Sisk had to install temporary guttering in case a deluge led to a river of water falling on the crowd below during the roof’s construction. The workers have been standing – or sitting – guard to monitor the rain in case action needs to be taken.”

I love the Councillor’s quote that City have played a “constructive role” in the “remarkable regeneration of East Manchester”.
Talk about an understatement !!!!
Fucking politicians. You have to laugh I suppose.

If they do it would mean that all storage or lifting of the remaining lengths of roof beams and other longer items is restricted to the eastern side only.

Currently they are using that space between the two and it is split between the two zones, east for west for west halves of the stand.
