Training for Unshielded Night Operations

In plain language

If you plan to fly your drone at night without a physical shield (like a building or structure) blocking it from open airspace, you must first complete an approved training course.

Requirement as structured

CAA NZ states that operators conducting unshielded night operations must complete a training course acceptable to the Director.
