Unmanned Aerial Systems (UAS), or drones, have become a popular tool in many different arenas, from aerial photography to functioning as reconnaissance aircraft in disaster areas. The Lawton Fort Sill Regional Airport is a “No-Drone Zone” and is protected and regulated by FAA 14 CFR § 107.41.
The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) requires individuals who operate a drone to register their unmanned aircraft and to notify the airport operator if flying within five miles of an airport. It is important to understand that once a drone leaves the ground, it’s entering airspace often occupied by other aircraft. Be sure to follow established rules and regulations as outlined by the FAA in the link below.
