Major disruption is being caused this morning at Frankfurt airport this morning after a drone sighting by a pilot at 11h20 Central European Time.
This comes after a similar disruption at the main German airport in May last year and Gatwick near London in December 2018. Â While the airport remains open, flight operations have been suspended. All inbound flights are being diverted to nearby airports. Federal police described the activity as ‘targeted disruptive action’ and have a helicopter in the air searching for the drone and operators.
