Flying in Marseille: the local context
Marseille stacks up airspace constraints: the Marseille-Provence airport CTR to the north-west, very busy hospital helipads (La Timone, Hôpital Nord), sensitive commercial port areas and, to the south, the Calanques national park where recreational drone flight is banned and professional flights tightly regulated. The mistral wind also imposes genuine weather windows.
On the demand side, France's second city is exceptional ground: progress monitoring on the Euroméditerranée development sites, inspections of residential blocks and port structures, imagery for seafront hotels and real estate, sports shoots around the Orange Vélodrome and film productions drawn by the Provençal light.
