Drone discussion paper published

As part of CASA’s review of drone regulations, we have published a discussion paper to engage the community and aviation industry on the issues and concerns which have been raised either directly with CASA or indirectly through a number of forums.

This discussion paper presents a range of safety related issues in a way that examines CASA's approach, associated risks and information about actions by other jurisdictions. It then poses a question to which you are asked to respond and assists by presenting additional information to consider when forming your response.

You can read the discussion paper and provide your responses through our consultation hub. The discussion paper is available for public comment until Friday 22 September 2017.

More information about flying drones in Australia and Part 101 can be found on our website.
