In collaboration with the Department of Defence, CASA is streamlining the procedure for RPA operators to fly within the no-fly zone of aerodromes controlled by the military.
Effective from April 30, 2023, RPA operators planning to fly below 400 ft AGL within the no-fly zone of a military-controlled aerodrome are required to:
When operating within the no-fly zone of a military-controlled aerodrome, a NOTAM must be issued, irrespective of the altitude. The military control tower may issue the NOTAM for specific operations. This is a stipulation of CASR 101.030 and Instrument 23/23.
RPA operators intending to fly above 400 ft AGL, perform BVLOS, EVLOS, drone swarm, or any other operation that falls outside the conditions and authorisations of the ReOC near a military-controlled aerodrome, must still apply to CASA using form 101-09.
