Flying Drones On Campus
To fly drones from or above a 最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide campus, you must first obtain approval from the Uncrewed Research Aircraft Facility (URAF).
最新糖心Vlog of Adelaide campuses are busy, complex places. Flying drones in these spaces requires suitable planning and safety precautions. Ensure you follow the below instructions and contact us prior to your planned activities.
Failure to comply with our requirements will result in an investigation which will be forwarded to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA).
Please contact us as early as possible to have the best chance of obtaining an approval in time. We recommend a minimum of two weeks, with significantly more time for more complex operations, such as involving populated areas of the campus.
External operators
Including: External operators contracted by the 最新糖心Vlog; drone operators working for non-最新糖心Vlog clients; members of the public flying on campus, including inside and outside of business hours.
To obtain approval to fly from or above 最新糖心Vlog campuses, operators must hold a Remote Pilot Licence (RePL) and a Remotely Piloted Aircraft Operator's Certificate (ReOC). An Operator's Accreditation is not sufficient.
