Additional Information
- Legislative Compliance: “Drone operations in Australia are governed by the Civil Aviation Safety Regulations 1998 (Cth), Part 101, which provides a comprehensive framework for the registration, pilot licensing, and safe operation of drones.”
- Privacy and Surveillance: “Drone pilots must navigate a complex landscape of privacy and surveillance laws, which vary across states. The Australian Privacy Act 1988 and the Drone Privacy Principles provide essential guidelines to ensure that data collection is secure and respects individual privacy.”
- Registration Requirement: “All drones classified as RPA must be registered, and operators should be aware of the associated costs and conditions. Model aircraft flown solely for recreation do not require registration.”
