Flight Planning and NOTAM Checks in Military Airspace

Verified from official sources
Version 1Effective -Verified 24 August 2026

In plain language

When flying in military airspace, you must plan your flight using the DAA tool and check active NOTAMs before takeoff to ensure the airspace status has not changed.

Requirement as structured

Drone operators planning flights in military airspace must submit their flight plan via the DAA Planner and check published NOTAMs prior to flying if the zone is activated or overlapped by a NOTAM.

Original regulatory text

The drone operator plans his/her flight via the DAA Planner in the same way as is done for the civil airspace... However, for zones activated by a Notice To Airmen (NOTAM), or when another zone is overlapped by one of these zones, the drone operator will still have to check the published NOTAMs prior to flying to make sure the situation has not changed and he/she is still allowed to fly.
