Oversight and enforcement process for PDRA01.
As a minimum, we expect the following information to be recorded for each flight to satisfy the requirements of the PDRA01 oversight process: Date Operator name Operator ID Remote Pilot name Flyer ID Operating category or authorisation Operating location Start time End time UAS type UAS make and model UAS serial number UAS take-off mass PDRA01 Authorisation number Flight time for this flight Cumulative flight time CAP 2606B - PDRA01 Remote Pilot Logbook Template Maintenance logs Your maintenance log should record all maintenance activity conducted on the UAS in line with the manufacturer's recommendations.

To achieve Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations in non-segregated airspace the policy and guidance for Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), CAP722, outlines the need for a technical capability at least as good as ‘see and avoid’ – a Detect & Avoid capability.The purpose of this guide is to build on the concept of a Detect & Avoid Ecosystem, and to provide a framework to support the development and eventual approval of a proposed DAA solution.This publication annexes CAP1861 BVLOS in Non-Segregated Airspace – Fundamentals and Terminology.
