Restrictions announced 20 February 2019

For all Drone/UAS (affecting all our model types) flying at or near listed airfields operating full size aircraft.
​These regulations came into effect wef:
13 March 2019
Airfield (full size) restrictions:

​On 13 March 2019 the drone flight restriction zone (FRZ) around airports and airfields changes.
The government has introduced a new rule stating that the 1km restriction from the airfield boundary is replaced by a restriction using the airfield’s existing aerodrome traffic zone, which has a radius of either, 2, or 2.5 nautical miles and then, five kilometres by one kilometre zones starting from the point known as the ‘threshold’ at the end of each of the airfield’s runways. Both zones extend upwards to a height of 2,000 feet above the airfield.
​
It is illegal to fly any drone at any time within these restricted zones unless you have permission from air traffic control at the airport or, if air traffic control is not operational, from the airport itself.

A link to a map showing each UK airfield’s FRZ restriction is available at:

NOTAM information can be found at:

scroll down to the map which you can then scroll/move around the map, and zoom in and out,
and it is clickable on zones for additional information.

We are having issues with maintaining concurrent dates for our NOTAM.
