Unlocking UK Drone Growth By Taking A 'Net Risk' Approach

Insurers confirm drones have low intrinsic risk. If they replace dangerous tasks like working at height, they reduce overall harm. Other countries have more permissive and prescriptive rules without compromising safety. If UK regulation is restrictive, it keeps people in harm’s way and limits growth. We suggest a shift in mindset, a focus on priority BVLOS use cases and prescriptive, cost-effective regulation.
