Number One should be common sense but then that can’t be put into law…
and so…
With the amendments, the enhanced regulatory framework will:
- Prohibit the carriage of dangerous materials by unmanned aircraft, such as weapons, and any bio-chemical or radioactive material
- Prohibit the discharge of any substance from unmanned aircraft without a permit
- Require operators to obtain a permit to fly or operate an unmanned aircraft that weighs more than 7kg in total weight
- Provide for the gazetting of security-sensitive locations as “protected areas,” where overflying by unmanned aircraft or taking of photographs from unmanned aircraft are prohibited without a permit
- Prohibit the overflight of unmanned aircraft over “special event areas” declared for the venues of major events without a permit (for example, certain venues of the Southeast Asian Games 2015)
- Require operators to obtain a permit to fly or operate an unmanned aircraft within 5km of an aerodrome regardless of height, or above 200 feet beyond 5km of an aerodrome, or within a restricted or danger area
