Think of the car over the past 100 years. At first, there were no speed limits, no safety belts and no traffic lights. Now traffic and license regulations are sophisticated and particular to every country. In fact they\u2019ve become a normal part of our everyday lives. Such is the case with drones and airspace. The next two years will see a leap forward, specifically in European drone laws that you as a user will be well-situated to understand.<\/p>\n<p>In this article, we focus on drones for commercial use. We offer a view of now and what is visible on the horizon of drone legislation. This is a complex topic, because drone rules and regulations depend on the evolution of commercial drone technology; real and imagined risk factors, and use cases that inspire new rules and exceptions. Additionally, while rules for flying drones might be transparent and well-documented in some parts of the world, it\u2019s important for users to check with local aviation authorities when flying drones in a location.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What you need to know about drone regulations today<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>To frame drone flying laws effectively in this article, we\u2019ll target two large and influential markets: Europe and the United States. In Europe, the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) oversees and develops the rules applicable to the design, manufacture and operation of drones. In the United States, the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) holds the same jurisdiction as the EASA does in Europe.<\/p>\n<p>In the US, the FAA has had formalized regulations in place since 2016, while in Europe, the EASA is now phasing in similar ones. By 2023, European operators and drone manufacturers need to be on board with these.<\/p>\n<p>Bottom of Form<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>In both the US and Europe, when a user wants to fly a drone for a project, the risk factors will determine what they need to do to operate within drone flying laws, and if it is even possible within regulations. Specifically, the altitude, whether there are people in a defined vicinity and whether or not the drone remains visible to the operator at all times define the scope of risk. Depending on its weight and purpose, the aircraft as well must conform to rules, which are constantly evolving.<\/p>\n<p>Worldwide, this basic framework generally applies, yet you will find that there are nuances in every country, with some being more conservative and others being less formal, or even non-existent. See the resources section at the end of this article for more information.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What are drone regulations?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Drone regulations (or commercial drone laws) are rules put out by a government branch in charge of airspace management and safety<\/li>\n<li>Regulations exist at the national level yet EASA is working to harmonize rules across the entire European region<\/li>\n<li>Commercial drone regulations evolve, and it is up to users to inform themselves about specific requirements for the operator and the drone in order to conform to the regulations<\/li>\n<li>Operators can fly certain types of drones in low-risk situations with minimal training and restrictions<\/li>\n<li>Once the flight involves more risk factors, more training and paperwork must be completed to ensure safety and legal operations<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>How to know when you need to get more permissions<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Baseline operations in low-risk situations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>One thing we can say is pretty universal is the lowest risk category for operating a drone. According to the EASA, this is called the \u201copen\u201d category. And according to the FAA, it\u2019s called \u201cPart 107.\u201d For both territories, the lowest-risk parameters are the same: fly no higher than 120 m (or 400 ft), at a safe distance from people with the drone in visual line of sight (VLOS) at all times.<\/p>\n<p>These low-risk parameters ensure that the drone (according to its maximum altitude) does not interfere with other air traffic, does not pose risk to bystanders and is under supervision of the operator (VLOS).<\/p>\n<p>To fly a drone in low-risk situations in the US and Europe, a pilot needs to pass an aeronautical knowledge test or online theoretical knowledge exam, respectively. Then, if they are flying in the US, they will need to register their drone. And if they are flying in Europe, they will need to register themselves as an operator, plus the drone must have a C-marking starting January 2023 (see product conformity section below).<\/p>\n<p><em>Note: In Europe, a registered operator can also be a company operating multiple drones via multiple pilots.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5759\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1-300x150.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1-300x150.jpg 300w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1-416x208.jpg 416w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1-1024x512.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1-768x384.jpg 768w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations3-1536x768-1.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Whether a mission is low or high risk depends on a range of parameters including flight altitude and whether or not the mission takes place in a populated area.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Flying drones in higher-risk situations<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Once you need to fly a drone in riskier situations\u2014e.g., higher altitudes, around more populated areas or beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS)\u2014the category changes, and so does the process.<\/p>\n<p>In the EU, in medium-risk situations, the \u201copen\u201d category becomes the \u201cspecific\u201d category, and you will need to provide a Specific Operational Risk Assessment (SORA) to the national aviation authorities of your country. You\u2019ll bring this to the aviation authorities. If your SORA application is approved, you can fly within these parameters as needed\/specified.<\/p>\n<p>In the US, you will need to apply for a Part 107 \u201cwaiver.\u201d Basically, you need to analyze the risk for your specific operation and demonstrate to the FAA that this risk is acceptable. If you succeed, you will get a waiver for the mission at issue or any mission like it.<\/p>\n<p>In high-risk situations\u2014for example, carrying passengers, or carrying dangerous cargo\u2014you need both certification of the drone and operator. This applies in Europe and the US and is technically the certified category of operation.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What about drone compliance?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In the United States, the FAA classifies \u201csmall drones\u201d as those weighing less than 55 lbs (25 kg). As the operator, you are responsible for ensuring that the drone is safe before flying it. In other words, the FAA does not require small drones to comply with airworthiness standards or to obtain aircraft certification. This puts responsibility on the operator to, as the FAA website recommends, perform inspections and check communication links between the base station and drone, regularly.<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, the FAA has the right to inspect the drone or test it on request, and you may need to provide records of the work you are doing with it. If your small drone flight results in serious injury, loss of consciousness or property damage of more than 500 USD, you must notify the FAA within ten days.<\/p>\n<p>In Europe, the new drone regulations that are taking shape around drone compliance are more involved. These are being rolled out over the next two years so that drones meet specifications and affix labels accordingly. For the low-risk \u201copen\u201d category, drones fall within sub-classes according to their weights from C0 to C4. Within the low-risk \u201copen\u201d category of flying, there are three subcategories: A1, A2 and A3. Drones in certain classes can fly in certain categories. Similar to the US, operators need to report any safety-related issues to their local aviation authority in a timely way.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5757\" src=\"http:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1-300x150.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1-300x150.png 300w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1-416x208.png 416w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1-1024x512.png 1024w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1-768x384.png 768w, https:\/\/digitalagro.eu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/regulations2-1536x768-1.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>While subcategory is important to consider, it&#8217;s also important to look at the regulations according to the types of missions you will fly regularly and their logistics<\/p>\n<p><strong>Where can I fly my drone in Europe?<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>A1 for drones less than 250 g (0.5 lbs).You can fly VLOS over people but not open-air assemblies).
