NAV CANADA’s new drone flight authorization app is now available on the Apple App Store and Google Play Store. Safely and legally request permission to fly your drone in NAV CANADA controlled airspace, all from the palm of your hand. A web version of NAV Drone is also available on navcanada.ca.
NAV Drone replaces NAV CANADA’s current online Remotely Piloted Aircraft System (RPAS) Flight Authorization Request Form and authorization process, which will be available until June 8, 2021. The online form will not approve new RPAS flight authorization requests for flights scheduled past July 1, 2021. Beginning on June 9, all RPAS flight authorization requests must be made with NAV Drone’s mobile or web application.
