New Everton Stadium

Having had the pleasure to meet Barry I can tell you for free he couldn't be more different to Mr Drone if he tried.

Barry does it purely for love of the build and Everrton.
Nothing more.
No hoodies, caps or coasters, just the occasional request to like/share/subscribe which allows him to keep doing what he does.

Putting a smile on the faces of us long suffering blues is reward enough. Anything else is a bonus.

You not like that drone fella?
 
Just to add to above, Barry has never once posted drone videos of the Pit getting its loft extension, in fact you will never even see the Pit on any of his footage, not even a glimpse.
Barry is all about Bramley Moore and the journey to our new home.
Doesn't chase clicks or free bevvies.
Just happy excited blues.
 
Serious question what are the drone lads plans for when bramley is up and running ?
The work and time they spend doing the vids is huge it’s going to be a massive void when it’s complete?
 
Another thing, those of you who are regulars in here know how much I love this build and have followed it closely with all the excitement and joy of a kid on Christmas eve. Every visit made me giddy with excitement seeing what else has been added, finished, started etc.

Barry is the only one I've met with the same enthusiasm, excitement and love for our new home.
That's why he's my favourite of the drone lads.

There's going to be games, night games, and cruise liners in dock, and then the surrounding areas development. Documenting the new city skyline and the redeveloped docks will keep the drone operators busy for the next decade I'd guess.

MEP design tends to come late in the construction process. Well, it's developed by a consultant to a certain point, usually RIBA Stage 3, and then it's taken over by the contractor responsible for installation. This further design development to RIBA Stage 4/5 is what usually comes later on as the Principal Contractor (LoR) appoints the MEP Sub-Contractor.

I wouldn't be suprised if the requirement for the ventilation in the cladding wasn't known/ identified until late on, certainly well after planning was submitted.

Ventilation exhaust requirements will have been known prior to planning, but there would have been no need to show location on the renders. The cladding model will not have been modelled to manufacture detail before then though and a lot of the 'skin' will have been created using much simpler modelling techniques and may have been as few as one single modelled and swept entity prior to Stage 3 for simplicity, rather than each cladding module being separate.

Cheers @tommye and we need to have that pint sometime soon.
Anyone who knows me will tell you I'm obsessed, even when I'm not doing updates you can find me once a week in the BM gazing out the window in awe. My missus calls it my second home. People only have to look at my channel to see it's 99.9% BMD.
I love watching other drone updates just as much as my own. I often wonder what I'll do when it's finished as I don't do other stuff like the other drone guys. Sell my drone, hang onto it and try to capture concerts, Euro 2028?
I'm just glad I can share the enjoyment I get from witnessing the build from start to finish and appreciate all the kind comments💙

Like i said above mate, that excitement, joy and enthusiasm we share is why you're my favourite of the drone lads.
That's not taking anything away from the others or what they've done.

I'm not sure of the legalities but I'd definitely watch drone videos of the game day buzz around the stadium.

Cheers, was struggling to think of a reason to carry on, never thought about the development of the surrounding area, especially Central Park👍

It's part of how the city gave the green light to the BMD redevelopment, a spring board for similar schemes in the surrounding area. There's also what happens to Goodison to document. (I always wanted Goodison 3d scanned or as close as can be with drones, and then incorporated into GTA because I wanted to jump it via rocket bike).

Yes I did just type that, and no I don't have a concussion.
