Fears Over Possibility Of Mid-Air Collisions With Civilian Drones

A former RAF pilot says he's concerned there could soon be a mid-air collision between an aircraft and a drone being flown by a civilian.
 
Matt Williams, a former helicopter instructor at RAF Benson, has set up a training company teaching people how to use the popular gadgets safely, after he was medically discharged earlier this year. 
 
He's compiled a course which has been accredited by the Civil Aviation Authority, the first of its kind in the UK.
