WHAT IS A CIVIL DRONE COUNCIL (CDC)


• Does not necessarily have a legal entity.

• Can be organized on a national or regional level (> 1 country).

• Participation is voluntary.

• Work hours & travel expenses are funded by the participants.

• In most cases a government representative presides & fulfils

the secretariat function.

• All national drone community stakeholders can participate.

Coordinate national industry efforts to develop the national civil

drone market by jointly:

- Identifying obstacles & prioritizing them

- Addressing technological & regulatory gaps

- Defining a national vision on the way forward

Support the development of innovative technologies & services.

Identify where national / regional investment is required/possible.

Keep national rules / regulation up-to-date.

Develop national export potential.


CDC – THE OBJECTIVES

Optimization of horizontal & vertical information flow.

Optimization of the use of national resources.

Creation direct contact between manufacturers & potential

customers permitting to develop products corresponding

more closely with user expectations.

Definition of a national drone strategy.

Technical support to national aviation authority.

Creation of a collective national conscience.

Promotion: national awareness/positive public perception.

Definition of a national opinion & its international promotion.

Coordination with other CDCs to fast-track specific topics.

Creation of inputs at ICAO, JARUS , EC & EU Agency levels.

CDC – DRIVERS & WORK METHODOLOGY

The effort is preferably lead by a designated government

representative (possibly with the support of an external

person to do the secretariat work).

Industry, in coordination with the relevant governmental

authorities, has to:

Be the driver & identify what the priorities (WG topics) are

Create & populate the exec committee & working groups

required to tackle the identified priorities

Set the timelines for the required work

Create a coherent structure to permit the aforementioned

The structure should be flexible enough to be adaptable to

the rapid development of technology


CDC – THE ADVANTAGES

Permits the members of a national drone community to identify

themselves to each other.

Permits to overcome national drone community fragmentation.

Minimizes the risk of duplication of development efforts.

Permits to create a national vision & relevant industrial & regulatory

strategy.

Federates the members of a national drone community (large &

small enterprises) behind a common goal.

Creates better understanding between the governmental & non-

governmental members of a national drone community and

balanced opinions.

The national drone community can work in its national language.


CDCs – WHERE THEY EXIST

Europe:

France

Germany

Spain

United Kingdom

Potential:

Belgium Italy

Netherlands Poland

Portugal Romania

Sweden Switzerland

Rest of the World:

Canada

Japan

United States

Potential:

Argentina Australia

Brazil China

India Russian Fed.

South Africa South Korea


1 Bring together the competences of large companies & SMEs,

which have a collective responsibility

2 Create a national opinion

3 Focus national industry on important action points:

t Urgent matters not dealt with in upcoming EU regulation, e.g.:

- Pilot Training & Qualification

- Flight School Approval

- Safety rules for test ranges

- Product Safety standards (Open category)

- Standard Scenarios (Specific category)

t Matters of critical importance, e.g.:

- Using SORA

- Identification & prioritizing standards (Specific category)

t Airspace integration

4 Coordination between EU CDCs will accelerate the creation of a

harmonized European approach
