Cork Drone Zone: Balancing Innovation & Safety
Description
The Irish Aviation Authority introduces a long-term safety zone over Cork City, replacing temporary drone rules that hindered Mannas food delivery service. This new setup, following a public consultation with 95% local input, addresses privacy concerns and noise pollution. Local drone pilots now enjoy standard coordination, while beyond visual line of sight flights still require prior approval. Manna welcomes the decision, citing expert checks that show minimal impact on privacy, wildlife, and noise levels. The safety zone provides a stable framework for drone innovation in Cork.
