In plain language
You can be held liable for any damage your drone causes to people, property, or other aircraft. If you do not have a dedicated drone insurance policy, you should check if your general civil liability insurance covers drone activities.
Requirement as structured
Remote pilots should verify the clauses of their civil liability insurance contract if they have not taken out a specific drone insurance policy.
Original regulatory text
Ma responsabilité peut être engagée en cas de dommages causés aux autres aéronefs, aux personnes et aux biens au sol. Si je n'ai pas contracté d'assurance spécifique, je vérifie les clauses de mon contrat d'assurance en responsabilité civile.
