The launch of the GoDrone mobile and web apps is the first step in enabling LVNL to build the Netherlands the infrastructure it needs to open Dutch airspace for special flight operations, to commercial drone use and ultimately BVLOS flight.
Michiel van Dorst, CEO of LVNL
Our range of flight planning tools, offered both independently and as part of our wider work with ANSPs and National Aviation Authorities, make operating a drone safely as easy as possible. We encourage drone users to download the most appropriate app to their geography to gain an understanding of airspace regulations and to register flights. Happy (safe) flying!
