Drone Rules for Flugplatz Amberg Rammertshof
Initial operational notifications indicate that unmanned traffic within 1500 meters of the Amberg-Rammertshof airfield facility perimeter requires mandatory operational logging. Ground procedures and flight safety criteria dictate that individual clearance parameters must be established with the station management desk
The underlying operational necessity for this localized geographic limitation falls under the standard air traffic framework (§ 21h LuftVO) to guarantee risk mitigation for low-altitude non-powered flight paths. The facility functions as a busy regional soaring hub featuring a primary 700-meter grass runway configuration matching an 08/26 orientation, alongside a shorter 350-meter grass strip designated as runway 29. The local airspace handles a complex mixture of aircraft profiles including club gliders, touring motor gliders (TMGs), and three-axis ultralights maintaining active monitoring on radio frequency 132.490 MHz. Launch operations regularly involve high-velocity steel cable winch launches and glider aero-tows, with steel cables being drawn directly across the 08/26 strip. Additionally, localized aerobatic flight training blocks (Segelkunstflug) are temporarily activated over the area, generating rapid and unexpected vertical altitude vectors for multirotors. Exceptional localized clearances can be reviewed manually on a case-by-case basis. Remote operators planning local missions must forward a detailed coordinate tracking file, valid EU remote pilot credentials, and a verified drone liability coverage certificate to the office before beginning any field operations. Documentation reviews, local airspace parameters, and landing permission confirmations are processed on-site by the administration board at Luftsportgruppe Amberg e.V., Rammertshof, 92224 Amberg.
