Noise regulation review

Remotely Piloted and Specialised Aircraft Review.

Remotely Piloted and Specialised Aircraft Review

In 2019 the department reviewed noise regulations to determine the potential impact of drones, urban air mobility aircraft and specialised aircraft, such as supersonic jets and historic warbirds.

Ninety two submissions informed the Report on the Review of the Air Navigation (Aircraft Noise) Regulations 2018 – Remotely Piloted Aircraft & Specialised Aircraft.
