Safety warning issued as work on Waterford Airport redevelopment continues

A safety warning has been issued as work on Waterford Airport’s redevelopment continues.

The airport posted a ‘safety information notice’ to its Facebook page over the weekend.

The poster warned that drone operators are not permitted in the vicinity of the airport.

The poster, which appears to have been AI generated, also notes that the airport and surrounding airspace is open during construction work.

The airport encouraged anyone looking for further information to refer to the Irish Aviation Authorities’ drone regulations.
