Deviation Permit for Seaplane Airport Zones

In plain language

You can apply to Trafikstyrelsen for a permit to bypass the seaplane zone restrictions if you have a competency certificate and the flight is for societal, research, or commercial purposes. For commercial flights, you must prove that using a drone is necessary, unless the seaplane airport itself ordered the job.

Requirement as structured

Trafikstyrelsen may grant permission to deviate from seaplane zone restrictions if the operation has a societal, research, or commercial purpose, the pilot holds a competency certificate, and (for commercial operations) the drone is necessary and alternative methods would significantly impair the task (unless ordered by the airport itself).

Original regulatory text

Stk. 4. Trafikstyrelsen kan give tilladelse til at stk. 1-3 fraviges, hvis 1) droneoperationen har et samfundsnyttigt, forskningsmæssigt eller kommercielt formål, 2) hvis formålet er kommercielt, at droneoperationen er nødvendig, og at formålet med opgaven i væsentlighed forspildes, fordyres eller på anden måde forringes, hvis den skal gennemføres på en anden måde end med en drone, og 3) fjernpiloten har et kompetencecertifikat. Stk. 5. Stk. 4, nr. 2, anvendes ikke, hvis den offentlig godkendte vandflyveplads har bestilt opgaven.
