Dear Mr Xxxxxxx,
Thank you for your email.
In A1 sub category, the regulations are focussed on the safety of uninvolved persons and so there are no specific minimum distances set down to operate in this category. It is accepted that UAS in this class may fly over uninvolved people (but not over assemblies of people). Flight over uninvolved people should be avoided whenever possible however, and extreme caution should still be used
However, this does not imply that there are no limits to consider at all In this sub category (A1).
There are few important points to consider:
1. The current ‘endangerment’ regulation in the Air Navigation Order (article 241), still applies, and so it is an offence to ‘endanger’ such property with an unmanned aircraft;
2. A person must not recklessly or negligently act in a manner likely to endanger an aircraft, or any person in an aircraft. (Article 240).
2. No flight over assemblies of people.
3. No intentional flight over uninvolved persons.
4. No flights within restricted airspace (Restricted Areas, Danger Areas, FRZs) without relevant permission.
5. the unmanned aircraft must be in the VLOS of the unmanned observer at all times.
Additionally, the overall security and privacy situation must also be considered and the remote pilot is still responsible for the safety of the flight.
Before starting the UAS operation in this category (A1), the remote pilot should assess the area and should reasonably expect that no uninvolved person will be overflown. This evaluation should be made taking into account the configuration of the site of operation (e.g. the existence of roads, streets, pedestrian or bicycle paths), and the possibility to secure the site and the time of the day. In case of an unexpected overflight, the remote pilot should reduce as much as possible the duration of the overflight, for example, by flying the UAS in such a way that the distance between the UA and the uninvolved people increases, or by positioning the UAS over a place where there are no uninvolved people.
