What the GCAA pre-flight checklist covers
The GCAA drone pre-flight checklist walks through 9 requirements in 4 groups (Registration & Certification, Altitude Limits, Airspace Authorization, Operational Restrictions) before takeoff. 8 of them are marked critical: skipping one can ground the flight or put the pilot in breach of GCAA rules. Every item explains why it matters, and the checklist content was last updated 2025-01-22. It is a planning aid, not legal advice: always confirm the current rules with GCAA before flying.
