Before

Ji-Paraná Airport – José Coleto (SBJI) is a key regional hub located in the central part of the state of Rondônia. It plays a critical logistical and economic role in connecting the interior of the state to major national hubs, accommodating commercial flights from major airlines as well as private executive and agricultural aviation.

Because the airport operates under Instrument Flight Rules (IFR) and serves larger commercial turboprops and jets, aircraft fly at low altitudes along their final landing approaches and initial takeoff climbs. The presence of unauthorized drones anywhere near these flight paths or within the airfield perimeter poses a severe hazard to passenger and crew safety. Consequently, spontaneous, recreational, or uncoordinated civilian drone operations are completely banned within the airport's grid and its active approach funnels. Violating this airspace is a federal crime under Article 261 of the Brazilian Penal Code (exposing an aircraft to danger).

Regulatory Authorities: DECEA (Department of Airspace Control) and ANAC (National Civil Aviation Agency).

Primary Framework: Brazilian Air Force Command Instruction ICA 100-40 (Access to Airspace by Unmanned Aircraft Systems) and the Brazilian Penal Code (Art. 261).

Flight Planning Portal: Real-time restriction grids, safety thresholds, and mandatory geofencing zones are managed via DECEA's official SARPAS NG and Aisweb portals.
