Critical No-Fly Zone covering Natal International Airport (SBSG). All unauthorized drone flights are strictly prohibited within this airspace to eliminate collision risks with domestic and international commercial jets. Only exceptional operations with explicit DECEA clearance via SARPAS NG are permitted.


Natal International Airport (SBSG), located in São Gonçalo do Amarante and serving the Greater Natal area in Rio Grande do Norte, is a major passenger and cargo hub managed by Zurich Airport Brasil. It accommodates a heavy flow of commercial flights, including long-haul international routes.

Because incoming and outgoing aircraft operate at low altitudes over surrounding highways, rural-urban borders, and logistical corridors, uncoordinated drone activity creates an immediate risk of a mid-air collision. Spontaneous or recreational drone flights within the airport perimeter, its active traffic patterns, or approach funnels are completely banned under federal law (Brazilian Penal Code, Art. 261).

Regulatory Authorities: DECEA, ANAC, and Zurich Airport Brasil.

Primary Framework: ICA 100-40 (DECEA) and Article 261 of the Brazilian Penal Code.

Flight Planning Portal: Operational safety grids and airspace restrictions are managed via SARPAS NG and Aisweb.
