Before

After

Vitória Airport (Eurico de Aguiar Salles Airport - SBVT) is located within a highly dense urban area, meaning its active approach and departure corridors cut directly across major residential and commercial zones in Vitória and Vila Velha. The airspace also handles high-frequency helicopter traffic servicing the offshore oil and gas industry.

To protect manned aviation, DECEA enforces a strict Drone Approach Zone (ZAD). Spontaneous or uncoordinated drone flights are entirely blocked within 3 nautical miles (5.4 km) of the airport. Any operations allowed within the outer 3–5 NM buffer zone are heavily restricted in altitude to ensure a safe buffer from low-flying aircraft. Manned aircraft always retain absolute right-of-way.

Sources> DECEA (Department of Airspace Control) and ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency), Brazilian Air Force Command Instruction ICA 100-40 (Access to Airspace by Unmanned Aircraft Systems) and ANAC RBAC-E No. 94, Real-time airspace coordinates and mandatory flight logging are managed via the official SARPAS NG system.
