Parts of Cork city and the harbour sit inside controlled airspace around Cork Airport. The IAA's geographical zone map divides Irish airspace into green, amber and red zones, and who can fly your site depends on the operator's authorisation.
Standard flight rules apply. Any certified operator can fly here without special clearance.
Flights need coordination or zone-specific conditions met before takeoff. Off-limits or conditional for hobby and Open Category pilots.
Restricted airspace, including around Cork Airport. Flights need specific permission and ATC clearance.
As Specific Category operators, we can apply for and obtain the IAA permissions and ATC clearances needed to fly commercial work in amber and red zones. If your site is near the airport, the harbour or the city centre, that authorisation is usually the difference between a job that can go ahead and one that can't.
