operations feasible may help to provide the spur to develop such technology further
and developments based on existing technologies are beginning to emerge.
8.24 Systems such as Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) transmit the
position of the aircraft and velocity vector to other aircraft in the vicinity and any
ground-based receiver.

These include ‘aircraft specifically
designed or modified for research, experimental or scientific
purposes, and likely to be produced in very limited numbers’.13 We
recommend that we use this exclusion to allow initial spaceplane
operations to take place in the UK, designating spaceplanes as
‘experimental’ aircraft for the short term.

The co-sponsors do not propose to specify a format or detailed requirements for this
Stakeholder Engagement Plan, but do envisage that it should capture how
relationships will be managed with key stakeholder engagement entities with the
AMS governance (specifically NATMAC and JANSC5), and any organisations and
groups who might not be picked up through other engagement, such as other air
navigation service providers, others with an interest outside the UKADS’s area of
geographic responsibility, General Aviation and military users, new airspace user
groups like drones and commercial space flights, interest groups, and elected
representatives.

The responsibility for ensuring the safe integration of drones in to the wider UK airspace rests with the CAA and the Department for
Transport (DfT).
