Drone registration will be obligatory in the UK
Taking in to account last drone incident, which took place at Gatwick Airport, the UK’s Civil Aviation Authority implemented compulsory procedure of registration of unmanned aerial vehicles.
The registration costs just £9, but firstly drone operators will be obliged to take an online education course and pass a test. After successful completion of registration, owners will be given a unique code which must be attached to their device in order to make it detectable.
Moreover, drone owners will be obliged to receive flyer ID which include theory test. And of course drone users must be over 18.
Persons who operate drone illegaly will have to pay a fine of up to £1000.
