Frequently Asked Questions
Do you need Port of London Authority (PLA) approval to fly at Fiddler's Reach?
Yes. Any professional drone operation on the tidal River Thames, including Fiddler's Reach, requires coordination and notification with the PLA and London VTS. UAS London manages all PLA clearances and notifications as part of our turnkey river service.
Can you launch drones directly from boats in Fiddler's Reach?
Yes. Through our partnership with Cinecraft, we have access to MCA-coded workboats and support vessels. Our pilots are highly experienced in launching and landing drone platforms from moving vessels, allowing us to capture close-up marine action.
How do you manage wind and weather risks on the river?
The Thames corridor often experiences high wind speeds. We monitor maritime weather forecasts closely. Our heavy-lift drone platforms are rated to fly in winds up to 25 knots, ensuring we can capture stable footage even in challenging estuary conditions.
