Drone Rules for Flugplatz Lauenbrück
Drones are prohibited within 1.5 km of Lauenbrück Airfield (EDGO) without prior operator permission due to intensive skydiving and low-altitude glider traffic.
This dedicated airspace restriction safeguards the 1.5 km lateral safety parameter surrounding Lauenbrück Regional Aerodrome (EDGO). Situated between Bremen and Hamburg, this grass-strip installation experiences high-density aviation traffic, serving as a prominent local hub for continuous skydiving drop zones, glider winch launches, and ultralight flight training. Because parachutists and non-motorized aircraft descend rapidly at unpredictable angles near the runway borders, unauthorized drone deployment creates an immediate mid-air collision hazard. Operating within this buffer zone requires an official prior permission (PPR) waiver. To coordinate temporary flight activities or request local clearance, remote pilots must contact the ground desk (Luftsportverein Lauenbrück e.V.) directly by calling +494267366. Local airfield traffic advisories can be actively monitored via the Lauenbrück Radio frequency on 122.530 MHz.
