Surrey sits under London's busiest airspace. We make flights easy.

From Dorking to Redhill, three recurring blockers on Surrey projects.

Heathrow & Gatwick CTRs

North Surrey sits under Heathrow's south approach and south Surrey under Gatwick's CTR. Fairoaks and Redhill aerodromes add GA traffic. Our drone pilots coordinate every flight.

Listed Country Houses

Commuter-belt estates and Surrey's listed country houses are surveyed without scaffolding the whole frontage.

North Downs AONB

The North Downs AONB needs careful wildlife and visitor planning.

Strict Vetting Process

You can't hire just anyone to fly over Surrey.

An uninsured hobbyist crashing onto an Epsom racecourse crowd or a Guildford high street leaves you—the client—exposed.

My name is Peter Leslie, founder of HireDronePilot. We vet every drone pilot before they touch your brief.

Commercial Public Liability Insurance (£1M min, £5M+ typical) and CAA authorisations are manually verified.
