The drone mystery is getting more interesting after the airspace of the Wright-Patterson Air Force Base was temporarily closed. Many people believe the drone mystery is just the FAA testing, since they chose New Jersey as a drone mission test state. But of course, anything related to drones this week is automatically a headline.
The video contains audio from the discussion about the airways. In this story, they’re saying the unidentified drone activity is what lead to the temporary airspace closure, as reported on WVXU:
Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is the latest sensitive location to report unknown drone activity. A base spokesperson confirms to Cincinnati Public Radio that the base’s air space was closed for a time late Friday night into Saturday morning.
“I can confirm that small unmanned aerial systems were spotted in the vicinity of and over Wright-Patterson Air Force Base between 13 and 14 December,” Bob Purtiman, chief of public affairs at the 88th Air Base Wing, told WVXU.
Officials say the drones did not affect base residents, facilities, or assets. The airspace over the base was closed for about four hours.
“We are taking all appropriate measures to safeguard Wright-Patterson and its residents. Our units continue to monitor the airspace, and we are working with local authorities to ensure the safety of base personnel, facilities and assets,” Purtiman said.
