The Ministry of Civil Aviation has given conditioned freedom from Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) Rules, 2021 to 20 entities to lead Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) experimental drone flights. The preliminary permission allowance is visualised to promote the additional framework development of subsequent UAV rules about BVLOS drone services. BVLOS experiments will assist in creating a framework for future drone performances and other important applications utilising drones. The BVLOS Experiment Assessment and Monitoring (BEAM) committee has been established by the Central Government to invite Expression of Interest (EOI) to begin BVLOS experimental drone flights. An EOI notice dated May 13, 2019 was declared by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) for the above-mentioned plan. The BEAM Committee determined the 34 EOls obtained and picked 20 consortia for the experimental flights. These exclusions are subject to complete consistency to the conditions stated in the said EOI notice and the directions/ exemptions published (or to be issued in future) by the BEAM Committee. This conditional exemption shall be legitimate for one year, or till further orders, whichever is earlier. The chosen consortia for experimental BVLOS drone services include: AutoMicroUAS Aerotech Pvt Ltd Aerospace Industry Development Association of Tamil Nadu (AIDAT) ANRA Consortium A ANRA Consortium B ClearSky Flight Consortium Asteria Aerospace Pvt Ltd, Centillion Networks Pvt Ltd Dunzo Air Consortium, Marut Dronetech Pvt Ltd Dhaksha Unmanned Systems Pvt Ltd Sagar Defence Engineering Pvt Ltd Skylark Drones & Swiggy ShopX Omnipresent Consortium Spicejet Ltd Saubika Consortium Terradrone Consortium B Throttle Aerospace Systems Pvt Ltd The Consortium, Virginia Tech IndiaValue Thought IT Solutions Pvt Ltd Image SourceAlso read: HCSS launches new drone-based analytics platform for contractors Also read: Drones: A valuable tool for the construction jobsite
