Drone aerial photography in Limoges
A pilot who knows Limoges knows where the light falls on the Vienne and when Gare de Limoges-Bénédictins stands out best: aerial photography here is as much about scouting as altitude. Every series is framed for its end use — print, web or file. From Cathédrale Saint-Étienne to the outlying districts, our pilots know the terrain of Limoges and prepare every flight on the local aeronautical chart.
Local demand rests on distinctive heritage — the Bénédictins railway station, one of France's finest and an iconic aerial subject, the porcelain quarters — plus the ceramics and electrical industries (Legrand), Limousin cattle farming on the outskirts, a fine opportunity for agricultural services, and affordable real estate feeding development and roof-survey work. Limoges enjoys a simple aerial environment: Limoges-Bellegarde airport, west of the city, generates moderate traffic and its CTR coordinates easily; no major military zone burdens the conurbation.

The airspace context in Limoges
Shoots in Limoges are planned around the neighbouring controlled airspace (CTR de l'aéroport de Limoges-Bellegarde): capped heights in places and prior coordination with air traffic control, which our pilot handles before any shutter release.
Professional aerial photography is mostly flown in the open category (A1 to A3, 120 m maximum) with an operator registered on AlphaTango; in town or near the public it moves to the specific category with prior declaration. Full regulations and rates: aerial photography across France →
