DfT now funding the Electronic Conspicuity Rebate Scheme until 31 March 2024

Great news for the UK’s General Aviation and Unmanned Aircraft Systems communities! The Department for Transport is now funding the Electronic Conspicuity (EC) Rebate Scheme until 31st March 2024.

Electronic Conspicuity (EC) technology promotes airspace safety by enabling pilots and drone users to identify nearby aircraft and avoid collisions. This involves devices on planes and drones that share information, as well as tools on the ground and in space to enhance situational awareness.

The scheme offers eligible applicants a 50% rebate (up to £250) on the cost of purchasing an EC device to encourage adoption. Stay safe in the sky with EC technology!
