Real-name registration for civilian drones

China will require civilian drones weighing more than 250 grams to be registered under real names starting on June 1 to improve civil aviation safety.

The government is also working on systems to share and check civilian drone registration data.

Recent cases have indicated that unregulated civilian drones could pose a threat to the safety of civil aviation.

The Civil Aviation Administration of China will release information of areas surrounding airports that ban the flying of civilian drones and work with local governments and public security authorities to monitor and crack down on unregulated civilian drones. (Photo 5)
