E.g. Accidental flying
into restricted
airspace
Take-off, Mid-
flight, Approach,
Landing
Collision with manned
aircraft
Lapse in active monitoring of UAS’s
position/altitude/heading
Consider people,
machine &
environment
Pilot must actively
monitor UAS flight
parameters and
maintain UAS within
stipulated area of
operations.
Ensure continuous
radio link between
UAS operator and
Unmanned aircraft
throughout flying
phase.
Monitor wind speed
in area of operation.
Terminate UAS
flying when wind
speed excess
stipulated limits.

Loss of visual line of sight
between UAS and operator
Consider people, machine &

Probable
Anticipate to occur >=1x during the entire system/operational life of an item; or
Once in 1000 to 10,000 (hrs)
High High Medium Low Low

Failure Condition in a UAS:
A condition having an effect on the UAS, either direct of consequential, which is caused or contributed to by one or more failures or errors considering flight phase and relevant adverse operational
or environmental conditions or external events
Catastrophic: Failure would prevent continued safe flight and landing resulting in (a) one or more fatalities or serious injury to persons or major property damage external to the UAS, (b) uncontrolled
loss of aircraft
Hazardous: Failure would reduce the capability of the aircraft or the ability of the crew to cope with adverse operating conditions to the extent that there would be the following:
a) Physical distress to persons or property damage external to the UAS possibly including injuries
b) A large reduction in safety margins or functional capabilities
c) Higher workload such that the flight crew cannot be relied upon to perform their tasks accurately or completely.
Major: Failure would reduce the capability of the aircraft or the ability of the crew to cope with adverse operating conditions to the extent that there would be
a) Potential for physical discomfort to persons or minor property damage external to UAS
b) A significant reduction in safety margin or functional capabilities
c) A significant increase in crew workload or in conditions impairing crew efficiency
Minor: Failure would not significantly reduce the aircraft safety and involve crew actions that are well within their capabilities. It may include slight reduction in safety margins or functional
capabilities, slight increase in crew workload (e.g. routine flight plan change)
No effect: Failure would have no effect on safety, i.e., operational capability of the aircraft or increase workload of the crew

SECTION V : FLIGHT PLANNING OF OPERATION AREA
Please add on to the list for each area of operation if more than one area of operation is intended.
Flight Planning for UAS Operation
Overview
There is a total of 3 parts in preparing the flight planning for UAS operation. Please complete all relevant sections.
PART A - Illustration of the entire activity area.
The applicant shall submit the entire activity area using a map application (e.g., Google Map etc.) with annotation of take-off / landing site.
The entire operating zone should be marked and its GPS co-ordinates, as suggested in the list below:
Green Area (Activity Area): Activity area for all intended RPA flight phases (Take-off, Mid-flight, Approach and landing)
Yellow Line (Caution Area): Yellow line is operator's declared boundary to make sure that the RP is in a standby condition/mode in
case where the RPA accidentally encroached the yellow line. The RP is expected to fly manually, or the flight control system is
programmed to return back to green area safely.
Red Line (Emergency Zone): Red line starts as the operator's declared boundary dedicated for any emergency sequence that may
arise during the conduct of UA operations. Emergency sequence may vary from manufacturer to manufacturer. The main purpose of
this sequence is to ensure that the RPA lands safely or, to ensure that the ground risk towards people/vehicles/buildings is reduced.

Page 9 of 15
Blue Line (Boundary Line) may act as the worst-case fall zone in case of emergency procedures carried out on passing the red zone.
At no time the UA can be operated out of the blue boundary line.
The distance of the Green Area to the Blue Boundary shall be the same distance of the height. Example:
