How to get permission to fly in Rochester FRZ

Hi all, as a very new boy on the block dronewise, I understand that the zone marked on the map is a No fly zone, airport restrictions. The question I have is can I and how do I get permission to do a short flight on the edge of the zone? Max diameter will be 100-150 m and max height of 50m, the subject is a Royal Navy memorial.

Is it a FRZ?

If you click on it, you should see the phone number to call?

@SapperFlyer yes confirmed, it’s a FRZ.

Click on the red area in Drone Scene and call the phone number provided.


I’ve updated the topic title for you, to help others who may also be searching for Rochester details.

They seem to be quite a small aerodrome too - after a bit of googling I did find an email address

info@rochesterairport.co.uk

They don’t seem to have any formal drone advice page - so email / phone

And a quick search here found this, seems promising

How did you get on, Clive @SapperFlyer ?
