The UK Government are bringing in mandatory registration of drones which are flown in UK airspace, even if the Pilot normally resides outside of UK airspace. This mandatory registration involves the pilot sitting a theory elements test to ensure they know the rules when flying in UK airspace.

DronePort NI is pleased to say we had been made aware of these rules prior to announcement and have been able to work to ensure our members are able to gain easy access to the test and support through the entire process. Our training for members, we already involves a similar test for free, will allow you to ensure you comply with the new rules.

There has never been a better time to become a member of DronePort NI!

Drone owners will also be required to pass a safety awareness test.
