UAS End Customers
EuroUSC™ is the UK CAA Approved Organisation (DAI/9932/09) for assessing the ‘Airworthiness’ of Light Unmanned Aircraft Systems of 150Kg and below. The Light UAS Scheme™ (LUASS™) covers the Design, Construction (including functionality of embedded FCS software), Airworthiness, Operation, Pilot/Crew Qualifications and Exemption or Permission to Operate. In 2004 EuroUSC™ obtained the first approval in the UK for a light UAS to operate from a Civil Airport.
End Customers contracting with UAS Service Providers (Operators) should satisfy themselves that the Operator holds the required CAA Permission/Exemption, appropriate levels of Insurance, that the aircraft is in an airworthy condition and that the Pillots/Crew hold the appropriate recognised BNUC™ qualification.
EuroUSC™ maintains a list of Accredited Manufacturers and Operators who have been independently assessed by the Qualified Entity under the the LUASS™ scheme.
