Compliance with Lower Height Limits in Geographical Zones

In plain language

If you are flying in a geographical zone where the local authority has set a lower height limit than 120m, you must respect that lower limit.

Requirement as structured

EASA guidance clarifies that the remote pilot must comply with any lower maximum height limits defined by Member States in geographical zones.

Original regulatory text

In addition, when the Member State (MS) has defined a geographical zone with a lower maximum height, the remote pilot must ensure that the UA always complies with the requirements of the geographical zone.
