The European Commission and - more recently EASA – are considering the gradual integration of unmanned aircraft (drones) in non-segregated airspace of any class at least since 2012 (Staff working document, SWD(2012 259 final). The EU sees drones as “a leverage for jobs and new business opportunities” (Warsaw Declaration, November 2016). It has continued to develop its drones strategy (e.g. Amsterdam Declaration, November 2018) over the years and Europe Air Sports has followed developments in this area very closely.

EAS was founded 1988 as an independent self governing organisation to follow, monitor and actively influence since 2002 the growing regulatory system in Europe which affects the free and indiscriminated access to airspace, increases the bureaucratic requirements in all fields of airsports aviation and reduces the individual freedom of aviators and their quality of life.
