We have guy Fawkes night to celebrate the failed plot to blow up parliament.   I’m amazed you’d not heard that story before.

Nice. Like the reflections. Good to add sound. The original from a different source?

That's good.  Rain throughout the whole event yesterday evening, so it was a bit of a damp squib (Pardon the pun)

Its a shame,   as long as you have the right lights EASA permit it.  But individual countries still can override the unified rules.

Yes, I was delighted when I read about those EASA rules the first time.
But .....
NL chose to add some additional rules.

I thought I read after 2022 the individual countries have to adopt the unified rules as is,  but I might be wrong on that.

Thanks Ann,    the audio is separate,  drones to record sound,  as you'd only hear the props.

The fireworks are in a nfz on approach to the airport so this was as close as I could get,   At the time they did this every weekend for about 2 months,  and I should have dont back and got some more of the pier in shot.

I'm just teasing you.  I saw a YT video of a guy flying through them,  Must have more money, guts, etc than me.  
I didn't know if your bottom camera mount you have, diminishes prop noise?!?!
