20th April 2021 11:37 Europe/London
‘The starting gun’ has been fired for the drone industry as the CAA authorises the first company to carry out routine Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations.
The company is command & control solution developer
sees.ai. The authorisation enables sees.ai to fly BVLOS at three nominated sites without needing to pre-authorise each flight.
“By removing this limitation, this permission fires the starting gun for the next phase of growth of the drone industry, during which the potential of BVLOS to significantly increase operational effectiveness and efficiency will be considered,” said a CAA statement.
