Antônio Ribeiro Airport (SBLJ) is a key regional airfield located in Lages, serving as the main aviation gateway for the mountain region (Planalto Serrano) of Santa Catarina. It handles regular corporate flights, private executive aircraft, governmental transport, and vital aeromedical evacuation missions, alongside seasonal or periodic scheduled regional commercial flights.

The airfield is situated near major local highways and expanding urban neighborhoods. Because aircraft operate at low altitudes under Visual Flight Rules (VFR) or instrument procedures directly over the surrounding terrain during landing approaches and takeoffs, uncoordinated drone activity poses an immediate threat to flight safety. Spontaneous or recreational drone flights within the airfield perimeter or its active traffic patterns are completely banned under federal law (Brazilian Penal Code, Art. 261).

Regulatory Authorities: DECEA, ANAC, and the Municipal Administration of Lages.

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.
