SAIL I and II operations are classified as low-risk under the SORA framework, making them an ideal entry point for organisations beginning their BVLOS journey. These operations generally require fewer technical mitigations and shorter approval timelines, while still delivering valuable operational range and flexibility. Hover UAV ensures your application is aligned with these lower-risk categories for a faster and smoother path to approval.
Yes—Hover UAV has extensive experience supporting higher-risk BVLOS missions, including operations in populated areas, with advanced platforms, or involving specialised equipment. For these cases, we develop robust, regulator-ready safety cases, coordinate closely with CASA, and collaborate with equipment manufacturers and operators to meet every safety and documentation requirement—ensuring your mission is both compliant and operationally sound.
Absolutely. Even if you have an existing approval, each new site requires an updated SORA, refreshed procedures, and engagement with relevant aviation stakeholders to address local risks.
