Permissions matter

Approved for business locations, airports, FRZs and restricted areas.

Most of the sites we're asked to fly, live commercial premises, near airports, inside Flight Restriction Zones, around Network Rail corridors, military air bases and Royal estates, require enhanced CAA permissions, prior notification, and an operator with the track record to coordinate with the relevant authority. We hold and operate under those permissions every day. If you've been told "no" elsewhere, our route to flying it is almost certainly already in place.
