A bit of a false impression of Germany (Patreon)

I suggested to send one of the LoRa nodes flying with helium balloons. The Chinese developer didn't think that was such a good idea tho.

Had a good laugh at the thought of a fighter jet squadron buzzing by to shoot my colorful party balloons :)

Okay, he might have a point, in that it needs a special permit. But military? Never!

Marco Vujevic

Still, better than doing it in america, where you would be shot before even launching the balloon, because they would think you want to build a helium bomb...

Maybe this person got the impression that balloons became a problem in Germany after listening to 99 luftballoons figuring a natural response would be military action.

hmmm... fighter jets aside, I never realized it was this regulated: <a href="https://www.balloonraces.com/guidelines-to-running-a-balloon-race-or-release.html" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.balloonraces.com/guidelines-to-running-a-balloon-race-or-release.html</a> and there is this - which although I can't see specific mention of it, I think refers to passenger carying balloons. <a href="https://www.caa.co.uk/General-aviation/About-the-GA-unit/Future-European-operational-rules-for-balloons/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">https://www.caa.co.uk/General-aviation/About-the-GA-unit/Future-European-operational-rules-for-balloons/</a> blimey! kind of pours cold water on a fun project

in UK you DO need permission to release a "weather" balloon - I am guessing a LORA toy would fall under the same category.
