Operating unmanned aerial systems inside this 1.5 km lateral safety buffer is restricted to minimize mid-air collision risks at Aalen-Heidenheim/Elchingen Airfield (EDPA). This regional facility is highly active seven days a week, featuring simultaneous motorized traffic on the northern circuit pattern (2,700 feet) and intensive glider activity to the south. Crucially, an established local model aircraft zone operates just east of the tree line up to traffic pattern altitude, further complexifying low-altitude airspace. Drone flights without previous coordination severely endanger these various flight profiles. Legally required Prior Permission (PPR) or exceptional waiver processing must be managed directly via the operating association (Luftsportring Aalen e.V.) by calling the control desk at +4973677122. Real-time traffic advisories are broadcast via Aalen Info on the assigned frequency 121.405 MHz.
