🚁 DRONE SAFETY IN JERSEY – KNOW THE RULES BEFORE YOU FLY! 🇯🇪

Drones are becoming increasingly popular across Jersey, whether for recreation, photography or commercial use. However, operating a drone comes with important legal responsibilities.

⚠️ Did you know that Jersey has its own aviation legislation, which differs from the UK?

Under the Air Navigation (Jersey) Law 2014, drone operators must comply with a number of safety requirements.

✅ KEEP YOUR DRONE IN SIGHT
You must maintain direct visual contact with your drone at all times, ensuring you can safely avoid aircraft, people and property.

✅ MAXIMUM FLYING HEIGHT – 400FT (APPROX. 120M)
You must not fly above 400 feet without permission from Air Traffic Control.

✅ STAY CLEAR OF JERSEY AIRPORT
You must not fly within 2 nautical miles (approximately 3.7km) of Jersey Airport without prior permission from Jersey Air Traffic Control. Other airspace restrictions may also apply.

✅ KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE
For drones fitted with cameras or surveillance equipment, unless specifically authorised:

• Stay at least 50 metres away from people, vehicles, vessels and structures not under your control.

• Stay at least 150 metres away from congested areas, including towns and built-up areas.

• Do not fly over or within 150 metres of organised outdoor gatherings of more than 1,000 people.

✅ RESPECT PEOPLE’S PRIVACY
Be considerate when recording photographs or video. Drone operators must comply with applicable privacy and data protection requirements.

✅ COMMERCIAL DRONE OPERATIONS
If you’re operating a drone for commercial purposes, you must obtain the appropriate permission from the Jersey Director of Civil Aviation.

🚨 WHY DOES THIS MATTER?

Unsafe or unlawful drone activity can put aircraft, emergency services and members of the public at serious risk.

A drone flown near an airport or aircraft could cause significant disruption and potentially endanger lives.

⚖️ REMEMBER – YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE!

Drone operators are legally responsible for ensuring that their flights are safe and compliant with Jersey’s legislation. Breaching these requirements could result in prosecution.

📲 BEFORE YOU TAKE OFF – CHECK THE RULES!

Horizon Development, La Rue D’Letau, Waterfront.

Although the main part of the storm has now passed , winds are still expected to reach up to 50mph throughout the night. Due to this the Horizon development on La Rue De L’etau has experienced heavy winds causing the roof terrace material to break off and float down onto the road surface facing Cineworld. This material is made up of thin plastic with a hessian type backing, it is lightweight but could still be a issue if landing on the road or footpath. Please take care especially if you are walking along this road and if possible walk as close to the Horizon building as you can.
If you need to go out tonight please take care and be well dressed for the weather. Otherwise , otherwise please follow the states website regarding the forthcoming weather .
