Participants in SAFEDRONE report successful completion of the project’s first demonstration in Seville, Spain, to integrate general aviation, state aviation, optionally piloted aircraft and drones into non-segregated airspace in a multi-aircraft and manned flight environment. More demonstrations are planned, in the vicinity of the ATLAS test flight centre located in Villacarrillo (Jaén, Spain) in order to accumulate evidence and experience about the required services and procedures necessary to operate drones in a safe, efficient and secure way within U-space. The demonstration is about U1 and U2 services, and a limited version of U3 advanced services including automated detect & avoid technologies in very low level airspace.
SAFEDRONE is a SESAR Joint Undertaking backed U-space project, aimed at demonstrating the integration of general aviation, state aviation, optionally piloted aircraft and drones into non-segregated airspace in a multi-aircraft and manned flight environment. Participants include: CATEC, CRIDA, Enaire, IAI, Indra, Unifly, and University of Seville.
