AMC1 Article 10(5) UAS flight authorisation service ED Decision 2022/022/R ACTIVATION OF THE UAS FLIGHT AUTHORISATION The USSP should make a final check of the flight authorisation and should confirm the UAS flight authorisation activation without delay when the following conditions are satisfied: (a) The UAS operator has accepted the terms and conditions associated to the flight authorisation. (b) The UAS flight authorisation is activated within the allowed time frame, when specified. (c) The U-space airspace is not subject to dynamic airspace reconfiguration, and the UAS flight remains compatible with the U-space airspace restrictions and temporary airspace limitations. (d) The planned UAS flight is compatible with the current weather maxima or minima, when relevant. (e) The UAS flight authorisation does not intersect with another UAS flight authorisation that has a higher priority (e.g. UAS conducting special operations). (f) In the proximity of the UAS flight, there are no: (1) manned aircraft in a state of emergency; (2) cooperative but non-conforming drones, or non-cooperative drones (when their detection is possible); (3) e-conspicuous manned aircraft intersecting the planned UAS trajectory. When the UAS flight authorisation cannot be activated, the USSP should indicate the reason(s) to the UAS operator and may propose an alternative.
