Cranfield Airport is a commercial and GA airport situated in Class G airspace situated between Bedford and the City of Milton Keynes with a 1799m runway which can accommodate business jets such as the Falcon, Gulfstream and Boeing Business Jet, which currently do not require runway slots.
The UAS Chief Pilot will be responsible to the UAS Manager for the safe and secure operation of all Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), Drones and Remotely Piloted Aerial Vehicles that are operated on behalf of Cranfield University within the Airport’s Air Traffic Zone or elsewhere.
The role will entail working with Airport staff, University staff, the CAA and University industry collaborators, in the creation and compliance of existing and new operational procedures and safety cases that enable enhanced (e.g. BVLOS) operations alongside normal Airport operations. Compliance with ANO 2016, CAP 393 and CAP 722 plus other existing and future relevant legislation will be a requirement.
