Consent for Flying Over Private Property

In plain language

To fly over private property, you must get permission from either the owner or the tenant. This consent can be informal (verbal or written) or a formal contract.

Requirement as structured

CAA NZ states that consent to fly over private property must be obtained from the owner or occupier (such as a tenant) and can be informal (verbal or written) or formal (contractual).

Original regulatory text

The rule requires operators not to fly in airspace above property unless they have obtained the consent of the property owner or occupier (such as a tenant). ... The consent itself could take multiple forms, such as informally (verbal or written), or more formally (contractual).
