Chongqing airport was disturbed by unmanned aerial vehicles twice on the evening of 12th, and hundreds of flights were delayed.

Chongqing airport’s official microblog reported on the evening of May 12 that on the evening of May 12, Chongqing Airport was interfered by unmanned aerial vehicles, which affected multiple flights.

As of 09:37 that night, the affected flights began to return to normal one after another. About 34 minutes later, at 10:11 pm on the 12th, UAV interference occurred again at Chongqing airport, and the flight was affected again. As of 11:37 that night, Chongqing airport began to resume flight take-off and landing.

The UAV interference caused more than 40 flights to reserve and drop off at Chongqing airport, more than 60 flights were canceled, more than 140 flights were delayed, and tens of thousands of passengers were affected.

The official microblog of Chongqing Airport said that the public security had investigated the matter. Chongqing airport reminds the general public to consciously abide by the relevant laws and regulations of the country and the region, and strictly forbid flying unmanned aerial vehicles, birds, kites and other objects that affect flight safety within the airport clearance protection zone, otherwise, it will bear legal responsibility.

Unmanned aerial vehicle intrusion will cause serious flight safety hazards

Since the beginning of this year, many domestic airports have suffered many incidents of winged creatures such as unmanned aerial vehicles invading the airport clearance protection area and hindering flight operation safety, and the problem of unmanned aerial vehicles “black flight” has intensified. Unordered flight of unmanned aerial vehicles can easily interfere with the normal operation of military and civilian aircrafts, and may even lead to flight accidents, causing losses to the lives and property of the country and the people.

According to relevant experiments, a 1.8kg bird collided with a high-speed aircraft, which produced a greater impact than a shell. Generally, the weight of consumer-grade unmanned aerial vehicles is 1.5kg to 150kg, which is usually made of hard materials. If unmanned aerial vehicles collide with high-speed planes, they may seriously cause the tragedy of plane destruction and death. In addition, it may also endanger the personal and property safety on the ground.

Unmanned aerial vehicles rely on wireless signals for data transmission. During the flight of civil aviation aircraft, the control system, automatic navigation system, automatic drive system, landing device, communication equipment and so on are easily interfered by wireless signals. Aircraft take-off and landing stages are the most vulnerable and threatened. At this time, if there are “black flying” unmanned aerial vehicles in the airport no-fly zone, no matter signal interference or collision events occur, it will cause aircraft system failure or even loss of control, and catastrophic accidents will occur, with unimaginable consequences.

“Black Fly” will bear criminal responsibility for serious consequences

It is understood that according to the basic flight rules of the People’s Republic of China, all flights must be applied in advance and can be implemented only after approval.

There are three hard conditions to engage in UAV flight and business: it is necessary to obtain the training and certificate of the pilot of the civil unmanned aerial vehicle system, apply for the flight area from the military aviation, and apply for the civil aviation flight plan, if you lack one, it is black flying.

In addition, the regulations on the administration of civil airports stipulates that in the airport clearance protection area, it is forbidden to release birds that affect flight safety, and to lift unmanned free balloons, tethered balloons and other aerial objects, etc, if the violation of the regulations is serious, a fine of more than 20000 yuan and less than 100000 yuan will be imposed, and criminal liability shall be borne for serious consequences.

On May 10, Chongqing Municipal Public Security Bureau issued a notice to strengthen the flight management of civil unmanned aerial vehicles. The “notice” requires that those who use civil unmanned aerial vehicles for flight activities within the administrative area of Chongqing must abide by relevant laws, laws and regulations; At the same time, it also makes clear the strictly prohibited flight areas of civil unmanned aerial vehicles.

Chongqing airport also reminds the general public to consciously abide by relevant laws and regulations and strictly forbid flying unmanned aerial vehicles, birds, kites and other objects that affect flight safety within the airport clearance protection zone.
