Leeds operations are planned around the city's significant topographical variation, Leeds Bradford Airport's FRZ in the north-west of the city, and nearby transport corridors including the M62 and M621.
Every Leeds project is planned site-specifically — airspace, ground environment, access, and output are all assessed before mobilisation.
Airspace Review
Full assessment of NATS, ATC zones, FRZ and local airspace restrictions for every site.
Site Access
Coordination with landowners, site managers and FM teams before mobilisation.
Nearby Property
Assessment of overflight risk and privacy considerations for adjacent properties.
Weather Limits
Real-time weather monitoring against operational limits for wind, visibility and precipitation.
Ground Safety
Securing safe take-off and landing points, establishing exclusion areas where required.
Permissions
Management of any NATS notifications, ATC coordination, or local authority consents required.
