Airspace and formalities in Bourges

For a site inside the restricted perimeter (Sites de défense interdits de survol (MBDA, KNDS, polygone d'essais)), overflight authorisation is requested once for the project's duration: the regular monitoring passes are then covered — we structure the request that way.

Site monitoring is flown within the works footprint, open category on land closed to the public; in urban areas a specific-category declaration covers the project's duration and its repeated passes. Full regulations and rates: construction site monitoring across France →
