The Spanish National Aviation Safety Agency (AESA) has granted Pegasus Aero Group the first specific BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) authorization, which in this case is being obtained to operate in the Fuerteventura Technology Park and to fly a fixed-wing unmanned vertical takeoff platform with a wingspan of more than three meters within the framework of the ISSEC Project.
This project is an ambitious research, development, and innovation (R&D&I) initiative focused on creating innovative solutions for emergencies, security, biodiversity, and other public and private services in the Canary Islands. With this authorization, which also allows for flights beyond visual line of sight, Pegasus Aero Group positions itself at the forefront of the sector, exploring new technological frontiers that not only improve efficiency and safety in critical operations, but also commit to nature protection, environmental sustainability, and emergency management by offering intelligent data management solutions.
The project, called the Solutions, Emergencies, and Biodiversity Development Center (ISSEC), has been co-financed by the Government of the Canary Islands, the Fuerteventura Island Council, and the Ministry of Science and Innovation, underscoring the importance of collaboration between institutions to drive technological development in the region.
