A new centre has been launched that is expected to put the UK at the forefront of the unmanned aerial systems (UAS) sector. The National Aeronautical Centre (NAC) is the world's first private facility for UAS development that has been created through a partnership between West Wales Airport and Newquay Cornwall Airport. NAC will enable the UK to capitalise on what is recognised by the global aerospace community as one of the world's major economic growth opportunities. It will do this by letting military and civilian UAS developers test, evaluate, train and demonstrate unmanned systems that can operate beyond line-of-sight in non-segregated airspace while satisfying the requirements of regulatory authorities.
