The legislation follows a year-on-year increase in drone
incidents.
Joana Whitehead
New laws introduced today will restrict all drones from flying
above 400 feet or within one kilometer of airport boundaries. The
legislation follows a year-on-year increase of drones incidents
with aircraft, with 93 reported in 2017. The measures are hoped to
reduce the possibility of damage to windows and engines of
planes and helicopters.
Further laws will require owners of drones weighing 250
grams or more to register with the Civil Aviation Authority
(CAA). The majority of drones users considered it is vital for
drone pilots to adhere to the rules and guidelines of the CAA, a
set of rules introduced to promote safe and responsible drone use.
Drones are here to stay, not only as a recriational pastime, but
as a vital tool in many industries – from agriculture to
blue-light services – so incresing public trust through safe drone
flying is crucial.
