Adjacent area:
-
The lateral outer limit of the adjacent area is calculated from the operational volume as the distance flown in 3 minutes at maximum speed of the UA. It is never less than 5 km or more than 35 km. See SORA 2.5 Main Body for details.
UA Size
< 1 m UA (< 25 m/s)
< 3 m UA (< 35 m/s) - Shelter applicable in the adjacent area
< 3 m UA (< 35 m/s) - Shelter not applicable in the adjacent area
< 8 m UA (< 75 m/s)
< 20 m UA (< 125 m/s)
< 40 m UA (< 200 m/s)
