Drones and Airports
Preventing Incursions and Ensuring Safe Operations
The rapid growth of drone operations is fundamentally reshaping how airports must plan, manage, and future-proof their operations. Uncooperative or poorly coordinated drones operating near/above runways or within controlled airspace have already disrupted airport operations and raised significant safety and security concerns. To mitigate the risk posed by such drones, air transport professionals are increasingly considering the deployment of Counter-UAS (C-UAS) capabilities that allow them to detect, assess, and manage drone activity whilst maintaining safe and efficient operations.
This webinar will explore drone integration and
C-UAS deployment in the airport environment, featuring insights from organisations with extensive experience in supporting the air transport sector.
Drawing on real operational experience, the discussion will go beyond technology to examine how counter-drone solutions can be effectively integrated into broader airport safety, security, and airspace management frameworks, and explore the processes which enable a coordinated stakeholder response to drone incursions.
