This week happened the first known collision between a drone and a plane in Norway, in about 2,000 feet altitude.
- The unmanned object hit probably chassis of the light private plane, and it had no consequences for the flight in this case, says senior adviser Eric Responding to the CAA analysis department to VG.
Could become severe
According to Respond it is not known who owned the drone. CAA will not go out with details about the incident except that single-engine airplane was registered abroad and that the incident happened somewhere in southern Norway.
- Had the drone hit the engine or windowpane could consequences become serious, he said.
Overall it registered 38 cases - 15 accidents and 23 incidents - with drones since 2011. While CAA in 2011 registered two cases, it was at the end of August this year reported 18 accidents and incidents.
- The increase in the number of incidents and accidents must be seen in the context of that more and more people acquire drones, says senior communication Marit Kvarum in CAA to VG.
The cases reported concerns including on technical matters, close encounter and conflict with manned aircraft, loss of control and bird collisions.
New regulations for consultation
A draft new regulations on aircraft without driver on board is now out for consultation.
- Drones are a significant challenge for aviation safety, and therefore we see it as important to ensure an adequate regulation and regulations dealing with this business, says communications manager Kristian Løksa Avinor.
He points out that large parts of aviation are well regulated, but that there are limited opportunities to reach out to those who buy drones.
- We are very concerned that people familiarize themselves with the regulations, he says.
CAA has issued over 400 new operating licenses for unmanned aircraft (RPAS) in Norway. According to UAS Norway, the national RPAS organization in Norway, there are probably over 20,000 sold drones in Norway, based on figures from sales links.
- Many of them are owned by pilots who do not have the required operator license from the CAA for commercial use. Norway is one of the countries with the highest number drones compared to number of inhabitants, says CEO Anders Martinsen in UAS Norway.
