Control Brief:
‘Today we are flying a drone which could potentially be dangerous. Please do not approach the
aircraft during take-off or landing. While the aircraft is in the air, please be aware of it at all times. If
you hear me shout ‘UAV FAIL’ at any time, please find the aircraft in the sky and avoid it, as it might
be deviating from its planned flight route, and I might not have control of it.’
Pilot Incapacitation:
‘In the event of me becoming unwell during the flight, press and hold this button (Show it to the
Observer/Client). The controller will beep, and the aircraft will return to the landing/take-off point.
Keep this area clear until the aircraft lands and then deal with any medical emergency(ies).’
