Hovershotz gain Extended Visual Line of Sight EVLOS aerial drone permission from the CAA a first for Cumbria & the Lake District

Hovershotz aerial drone photography video & inspections are delighted to announce that  have received permission from the CAA Civil Aviation Authority, to fly Extended Visual Line of Sight (EVLOS). We believe that Hovershotz are the first and only drone operator in Cumbria & the Lake District to gain the authorisation.

This means when following certain conditions Hovershotz can fly out to a range of 1500 metres and a height of 500 feet above ground level. Almost all other UK companies are restricted to operating up to 500 metres and 400 feet.

This is great news for our customers, helping save both time and money and also meaning Hovershotz can now carry out tasks other Cumbrian drone operators are simply unable to complete! It also sets Hovershotz apart from any other commercial drone operator in Cumbria, the Lake District & Lancashire in being authorised to not only fly EVLOS but also having night flying permission, making Hovershotz the top professional drone operator in Cumbria, Lancashire & the Lake District.

This will be of particular benefit to our clients in the film making, news media and surveying industries. Hovershotz – now the first choice for professional aerial drone photography, videos & Inspections across the North West of England.

Another example of how Hovershotz leads where our competitors follow.
