‘Buy snag and put in bag’: Man faces $9000 fine for using drone to pick up sausage from Bunnings
If you were parting with $9000 at your local Bunnings Warehouse, you’d hope to get a bit more than a sausage and bread.
A man who only wants to be known as “Tim” has admitted he was part of a team that flew a drone to pick up a sausage from Bunnings and deliver it to a friend waiting in an outdoor spa in Sunbury.
But that’s the reality one peckish man is facing, after he used his drone to pick up a snag before flying it back to his yard.
But the Civil Aviation Safety Authority is investigating the incident after a video was uploaded to YouTube showing a man piloting a drone to the Sunbury Bunnings carpark while he sat at his home.
The peckish drone flyer is now facing a $9000 fine for breaching multiple civil aviation regulations, including flying within 30 metres of people, use out of the line of sight and use over a populous area
“You can clearly see people walking to and from their cars, you can clearly see people around the sausage sizzle,” Civil Aviation Safety Authority spokesperson Peter Gibson told Fairfax.
The video has since been reposted on Facebook, showing a man receive the sausage in a hot tub in the backyard of a house in Sunbury, Victoria.
The video shows the drone flying over a housing estate and crossing a congested road before landing in the Bunnings carpark.
An alleged accomplice reads the order and places the much-awaited sausage and bread in a bag attached to the drone.
The drone then returns to a house where a man is sitting in his backyard hot tub.
“This is a classic example of a place where you should never fly a drone,” Mr Gibson said.
“We want to see people have fun with their drones but if you don’t respect the rules then you putting people at risk and there are penalties for doing that.”
