The Civil Aviation Authority of Sri Lanka (CAASL) invited the drone operators having the potential, capability and interest to offer Drone Technology services during COVID-19 pandemic.

These services include COVID-19 preventive measures and / or humanitarian tasks.

The CAASL requested the drone operators to contact the authority early to form a pool of drone operators which can undertake tasks to be assigned by Health and other relevant authorities such as air transportation of essential medicines, food supplies and other services.

The operators can contact the CAASL through Rohan 077 103 8064/ ddgasr@caa.lk, Samudra 076 631 7403/ mgrasm@caa.lk and Praveen 071 636 9248/ amasm@caa.lk. (Lahiru Pothmulla)

    This really tells us about the knowledge CAASL has on local drones. The drones operated here are for the entertainment and media usage only. They're not cargo haulers. With no capacity to carry a urine sample and having an effective range of 5-6 km, this is a pipe dream of a politically appointed mutt.
