Information about the Drone flight and Crane installation approval process for the Goodwood Flight Restricted Zone (FRZ).
On 13 March 2019, new legislation regarding drone flight restrictions around airfields came into force. The new legislation supersedes the drone flight restricted zones that were published in July 2018.
From this date, drones, also known as unmanned aerial vehicle or UAV’s (which includes model aircraft) are banned from flying within a Flight Restricted Zone around an airport or aerodrome. Therefore, flying drones in and around the Goodwood Estate and surrounding area require permission to be obtained before they are flown, as a Flight Restricted Zone is in place around Goodwood Aerodrome.
Anyone wishing to use a drone within this restricted airspace must apply to Goodwood Aerodrome via the Air Portal.
Any crane that operates within 6km of an Aerodrome, Airport or Heliport will require an assessment of the proposed operation and location as part of the approval process.
Cranes and other tall construction equipment can present a serious hazard to flight safety, by impacting obstacle limitation and/or affecting navigational aids and communication equipment. Our crane approvals process will assess your proposed construction operation to ensure this can be undertaken without impacting air safety.
Please note for cranes operating on the Goodwood Estate, including those operating on construction activity associated with major events (i.e. Festival of Speed and Goodwood Revival), a site specific crane permit is required in addition to the initial crane assessment. The crane permit will be issued by the Goodwood Health & Safety team when you arrive on site and this will be required prior to the crane being used.
If you wish to operate a drone anywhere within the Goodwood FRZ, or operate a crane within the 6km safeguarded area of Goodwood Aerodrome, you must request permission to do so via the AirPortal application process.
Drone flight applications must be submitted at least 5 working days before your intended flight. For drone flights or at Goodwood Motor Circuit or Goodwood House, applications must be submitted at least 7 working days in advance. Please note, we are unable to accept or process drone requests received on Saturdays or Sundays, so allow additional time when planning your flight.
For crane applications within the 6km safeguarded area around Goodwood Aerodrome, we will require your application to be submitted at least 14 days in advance.
Drones may only be flown and cranes deployed once your application has been assessed and written permission has been granted by the Goodwood Aerodrome team.
Please note that applications for both drone flights and cranes are a paid service. The charge made for drone and crane requests is an administrative assessment/approval fee and is not a charge for the use of the airspace. Please see below for details of our charges.
