🎬 AERIAL VIDEO · NANCY (54) · €500–1,800 PER HALF-DAY
Drone aerial video in Nancy
A film shot in Nancy has a ready-made opening: arriving along the Meurthe, revealing the bridges, then Villa Majorelle as the tracking shot unfolds. Our pilots write these shots with you at the scout, then fly them in the chosen light window. From Place Stanislas to the outlying districts, our pilots know the terrain of Nancy and prepare every flight on the local aeronautical chart.
Demand rests on this exceptional 18th-century and Art Nouveau (École de Nancy) heritage, on the health and engineering cluster (Artem, Brabois hospital and its busy helipad), on old-building renovation and on the redeveloped Meurthe banks, regular subjects of construction monitoring. Nancy's sky is marked by the military: air base 133 at Nancy-Ochey, twenty-five kilometres south-west, operates Mirage 2000D jets and its low-altitude training zones affect the whole region; the Nancy-Essey airfield, meanwhile, adjoins the city centre to the east.

Local regulations: flying in Nancy
The shooting plan in Nancy is set around controlled airspace (Aérodrome de Nancy-Essey accolé au centre): some camera moves are replanned at lower height or on another axis after coordination with air traffic control.
A drone shoot follows open-category rules in clear areas and moves to the specific category (STS-01, prior declaration) as soon as it flies over a populated zone; productions receive insurance certificates and permits. Full regulations and rates: aerial video across France →
