Hi to All Aussie Operators
Just wondering if anyone has looked at having our drone laws changed to that of the UK for sub 250g drones at all?
I contacted CASA with the following question and their response below:
Please find the response to your query below:
Question: Why are Australian drone rules more strict than that of the UK and USA? Are Australian drone operators less skilled or capable at operating drones?
Answer: The Guidance Delivery Centre can not comment on the differentiation between the rules for foreign National Airworthiness Authorities (NAA) and Australia's regulations. CASA's Civil Aviation Safety Regulations are an outcome based regulation, which provides industry participants the opportunity to either comply with current regulations or provide an alternate means of compliance that CASA would consider acceptable.
This guidance is current and accurate at the time of receiving this notification, and is subject to change over time at the discretion of the policy holder which may impact the accuracy of this information.
If you require further clarification relating to this matter, please reply to this email and quote the reference number CASE ENQ-22-139046.
Best regards,
