Operational issues and assessment of risk for light UAVs

ENAC, the Italian Civil Aviation Authority, has published the regulation for remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS) with a maximum take-off mass of less than 150 kg. The aim of this paper is the application of Italian regulatory prescriptions for risk assessment to a family of RPAS. The results of this analysis, performed in collaboration with ENAC, are compared with other available methods, providing a comprehensive insight for mission feasibility and operational implications in a set of realistic application cases. Practical solutions are proposed for risk mitigation of RPAS specialized operations.
