New trials move the UK closer to allowing everyday drone deliveries and flying beyond visual line of sight
Six projects have been chosen for trials under a UK Civil Aviation Authority scheme that will help make beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone flights an everyday reality.
HexCam, in partnership with its local ANSP, seeks to test the viability of long distance drone survey operations, utilising electronic conspicuity and air traffic services at very low levels as a means to integration.

Regulator launches third round of funding to deliver airspace modernisation
The UK Civil Aviation Authority has launched a third round of its £2 million funding to help support airspace modernisation projects.
Other successful applicants to previous fund allocations have also included organisations looking into the interoperability of electronic conspicuity systems, improving Flight Information Display documentation, and research towards distribution of aircraft noise.

Atypical Air Environments (AAEs)
Programme background
However, the CAA emphasises the responsibilities required by the pilot in command of any aircraft to check NOTAMs before every flight, as well as ensuring that if your aircraft is equipped with any form of electronic conspicuity it is turned on and enabled during flight.

Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS)
Programme background
At this stage, electronic conspicuity is considered very likely to be an essential enabler for DAA and is therefore likely to be essential for operations within TRAs that are established for the purpose of integrating BVLOS operations.
