Aircraft in controlled airspace fly
under the positive monitoring and direction of air traffic control to maintain safe
distances between them.4 Uncontrolled airspace typically incorporates areas
where aircraft are not required to be identified and managed by air traffic

providers to support their safe flying.
1.4 Prior to the Covid-19 pandemic, the UK’s skies were accommodating increasing
numbers of commercial flights, military activities and an active General Aviation
sector, as well as new types of user such as unmanned aircraft systems.5
4 In Class E airspace, only flights under Instrument Flight Rules are controlled.
5 Unmanned Aircraft may also be referred to as Drones, Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS),
Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV), Model Aircraft, Radio Controlled Aircraft.
