Will not allow me to register

All I get is “failed to register”. No explanation as to why. I’ve changed everything and still failed to register.

Good idea, but unreliable content

A lot of pins have no detail behind them at all, and most of the pins I found in my local area, are actually in no-fly areas. There was even a pin placed right on a local controlled airport!
Don’t trust that just because there is a pin there, you are actually allowed to fly there.

Can’t add locations and many added are illegal areas,

I have no means of adding locations that I can see.

Additionally nearly all the ones near me are within NFZ’s near my local airport. People who added them are ignorant of the law.

Quite ridiculous to allow locations without showing illegal areas. There are a number of forums and apps which do this properly and you can add locations with videos and comments.

Far better uk based apps than this.

Wrong information

Many zones that are shown are actually not suitable. Have personally emailed couple parks to confirm that. Although good try and great idea.

Ok app but one major thing missing

Like the app, would it not be a good feature to have a no fly boundary based on the current laws?
