Frequently Asked Questions
-
Are Lee Consultants' drone pilots certified?
Yes. Our UAV pilots and operator’s permit are certified by the Civil Aviation Authority Singapore (CAAS).
As engineers and thermographers ourselves, we have the practical knowledge to ensure a rapid yet thorough visual or thermal inspection.
With Bizsafe 3 and WSQ Work-at-Height certifications, we can operate safely in the fields of engineering & construction.
-
What happens if it rains on the day of inspection?
Every good pilot has a contingency plan! We try our best to apply for at least a 3-month UAV activity permit, to cater for alternative flight dates in case of inclement weather.
The 3-month flight windows giving us flexibility for planning and execution.
-
What if the UAV permit is not approved, do I get charged?
We are well experienced with CAAS activity permit applications. This is because we have done many drone flights across different parts of Singapore.
Before we take on a project, we will advise our clients if the proposed flight location may be approved by CAAS.
Lee Consultants charges S$250 for the UAV activity permit application. This is to cover for the cost of the application fees that CAAS charge, regardless of the final approval.
-
Can drones be flown at any location?
The activity permit for drone flight is subject on CAAS’s approval.
Different locations will however provide operational limitations & restrictions depending on your mission details.
Some factors to consider if the location is the following:
- within 5km of an airport;
- near a prohibited area;
- within a danger area;
- is within a restricted area; and/or
- a protected area under Section 7 Air Navigation Act.
