National Day: Drones prohibited at designated areas in Putrajaya, says CAAM


PUTRAJAYA: The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) reminds the public not to fly drones without authorisation in areas designated for the National Day 2023 celebration in Putrajaya, from Aug 21 to 31.

It said the ban was, among other things, to avoid the risk of accidents to Royal Malaysian Air Force (RMAF) aircraft, which were conducting low formation flight training in the focus areas on these dates.
