Are 5G connection and UAVs merely parts of an extravagant and luxurious world, or are they essential parts of a practical world in a way we have yet to see? To aid in a direction to address the issue, we provide a practical framework for immersive aerial monitoring for public safety. Because the framework is built on top of actual realizations and implementations designed to fulfill specific use cases, high level of practicality is ensured by nature. We first investigate 5G network performance on UAVs by isolating performance for different aspects of expected flight missions. Finally, the novel aerial monitoring scheme that we introduce relies on the recent advances brought by 5G networks and mitigates the inherent limitations of 5G network that we investigate in this paper.
