The UK Civil Aviation Authority has confirmed a package of updates to simplify rules for drones and to enhance safety.
The CAA said that the legislative measures it will recommend to the Department for Transport will reinforce its aim “to create a world-leading regulatory environment that balances the need for safety and security with enabling the unmanned aircraft sector to grow”
Recommendations include increased education requirements, with free online mandatory flyer ID training extended to users of drones over 100g, introduction of drone product standards and implementation of direct remote ID requirements to enable a drone to broadcast identification and location data.
