Aeryon Labs成功完成了首次批准的BVLOS飞行测试

Aeryon Labs, a Canada-based manufacturer of small unmanned aerial systems (sUASs), has announced that the Aeryon Sky Ranger sUAS successfully completed the first Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flight in Canada. The SkyRanger was chosen byVentus地理空间和加拿大人无人驾齐故, as the vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) sUAS flown for BVLOS* testing and evaluation throughout the trials at theForemost UAS Range.

这些飞行试验在全球范围内的少数BVLOS试验中，是航空的里程碑，建立了25公斤超出视线之外的UAS的安全运营程序和协议。这一就职航班为苏斯运营商如何在加拿大和全球范围内提供合法和安全地飞行BVLO的基础。民用和商业应用，包括公共安全，电力线和管道检查，以及大面积映射，将更加可行，更具成本效益，因为在没有试点调整位置的单一航班中可以覆盖更大的区域，以保持SUAS内部视线。

Land and maritime environments

Transport Canada continues to be a progressive airspace regulator, establishing standards and guidelines, like BVLOS, that enable safe UAS operations within Canada, commented Dave Kroetsch, president and CEO, Aeryon Labs. Aeryon is proud to be support Transport Canada and aviation partners using the SkyRanger, which is thefirst VTOL sUAS to conform to the requirementsestablished by Transport Canada for UAV system airworthiness and design, he added.

SkyRanger sUAS是土地和海上环境的成功系统，有数千小时的飞行时间和世界各地成功的客户特派团。除了Skyranger在标准化安全BVLOS应用中的角色外，Aeryon还在继续为实现行业首先提供10年的运营经验。

The SkyRanger has provided safe and reliable operations in military, public safety and commercial applications including, thewildfires in Ft. McMurray, Albertain 2016, where Transport Canada granted approval for Ventus Geospatial to operate in restricted airspace to assist in the fire response efforts.

*运输加拿大将视觉视线定义为“与飞机有足够的视觉接触，足以能够维持飞机的操作控制，了解其位置，并且能够扫描其运作的空域，以果断地看到和避免其他空中交通或物体。“BVLO描述了在超出上述视觉接触的距离距离处进行的UAS飞行操作。
