Review and reduce restrictions on the operation of drones and model flyers

Petition Details

The Government should review current restrictions on the operation of drones and model flyers, and reduce these to lessen the burden on hobbyists.

Additional Information

Currently most operators are required to register and must keep drones or model flyers in direct view. We believe operators should not have to register and should be allowed to rely on First-person view (FPV) to operate Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS).

Some restrictions, such as keeping below a certain height, and not entering airports, should be kept in place.
