Don’t Fly Drones Here – UK Edition

UK drone enthusiast James Harvey has created a free site, not for profit, called NoFlyDrones that just highlights the areas in the UK that RPAS operators should not operate in. He made it after he saw numerous complaints and difficulties that non aviation related people were having when reading aviation maps. So this puts the same information pertinent to RPAS operators on a simple interface.

Drone Regulations in the UK are extremely mature when compared to the rest of the world, they are fair and proportionate enough to allow us to fly drones in some stunning locations across the country. The rules and regulations that do exist are in place to ensure the safety of other airspace users, third parties on the ground as well as locations of national security, such as high security prisons, royal residences and military danger areas. Breaches of these regulations are not taken lightly by the CAA and ignorance of the law is no excuse, so learn from the lessons of others and check the airspace before you fly.

This website’s sole purpose is to provide drone operators with a quick and easy means of determining where they should and shouldn’t be flying based on the airspace above them.
