The EASA (European Aviation Safety Agency) is mandated to regulate RPAS with a MTOM of 150 kg or more when used for civil applications in Europe, and is supporting the development of a European ‘roadmap’ covering the development and integration into non-segregated airspace of civil RPAS in the medium and long term.
This roadmap is articulated in three pillars: research and development; safety regulation and technical standardisation; and complementary measures, including privacy and data protection, insurance and liability.
EASA has just published a special section on its web site totally dedicated to Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS).
