ED Decision 2022/002/R
RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE AIRSPACE OBSERVER (AO)
The employment of AOs is not limited to operations covered by STSs — they can be employed also in other operations under the ‘specific’ category. The AO’s main responsibilities, as defined in point UAS.STS-02.050, are to:
(1) maintain a thorough visual scan of the airspace surrounding the unmanned aircraft (UA) in order to identify any risk of collision with any manned aircraft;
(2) maintain awareness of the position of the UA through visual contact or through assistance provided by electronic means;
(3) alert the remote pilot when a hazard is detected and assist in avoiding or minimising the potential negative effects.
