Comic Relief the red nose challenge 2022. Hovershotz spent 5 days earlier this month filming with the BBC across the Lake District providing all the drone filming, this years challenge. It has been going out every evening this week on the BBC One Show and tonight at 7 PM is the last instalment.

Next week we're working on another BBC series filming Beatrix Potter, then filming in the Langdales for Netflix. In fact most TV and film productions using drones in the Lake District use Hovershotz.

One of the downsides of Brexit, is the EU no longer recognise UK drone qualifications or licences. However we have managed to register in Luxemburg and have taken the EASA A1 A3 exam, which along with our EC 785/2004 commercial drone insurance, enables Hovershotz to operate in any EU Country. All we need now is for Covid travel restrictions to be lifted and we can start taking bookings for drone filming in Europe again.

In readiness for the new drone regulations due 1st of January 2021, Hovershotz have successfully qualified for the CAA A2 CofC which will allow us to film closer when using lighter drones than our current permissions allow and we have also qualified for the GVC General VLOS qualification, which amongst other benefits will allow us to operate commercially across Europe. We will also be maintaining our CAA PfCO which will allow us to fly legacy drones once the new regulations come in.
