I get that. The drone is very obstructive. It compromises safety, I would say. The witnesses have made that very clear. Yet, the drone gets packed away into a bag and is taken home again. There is fixed infrastructure - antennae, aerials, masts, turbines - all going up in this area and potentially compromising Irish airspace and the efficacy of radar and potentially compromising air safety.

Would the witnesses comment on that aspect please?
