General responsibilities
Operators are responsible for planning operations, maintaining aircraft in a safe condition, understanding local restrictions and ensuring pilots are competent for the intended activity.
Safe operation principles
- Assess weather, terrain, bystanders and nearby aviation activity before launch.
- Maintain visual line of sight unless separately approved.
- Avoid unsafe proximity to people, vehicles, structures and emergency scenes.
- Respect privacy and data protection obligations under Endonian law.
Registration and approval overview
Most operators will be expected to maintain a valid operator record once online services go live. Complex activity may require an operational authorisation based on risk and mitigations.
Yes. Community and hobby operators must still fly safely, remain within relevant operating limits and follow local restrictions.
Public event operations are generally higher risk and likely to require a specific authorisation and detailed safety case.
