Default London Gatwick Airport closed due to multiple drones within its airspace...

A new level of utter stupidity...

Passengers flying in and out of London Gatwick will face at least another 24 hours of disruption after several drone sightings forced Britain's second busiest airport to shut its runway, causing delays to thousands of Christmas travellers.

Authorities at Gatwick halted flights at about 9pm local time on Wednesday after two drones were spotted flying near its airfield.

Over 20 police units were searching for the drone operators on Thursday, when the airport had expected to handle around 115,000 passengers.
