Strategy

Compliance first, then scale

Transport Canada rules the flight plan. We pick sites where BVLOS risk is manageable, document everything, and grow from there.

Compliance

How we open the first envelope

Early flights follow a narrow rule set. That keeps regulators comfortable and your site in the air.

Airspace

Stay in uncontrolled airspace for early programs.

Altitude

At or below 400 ft AGL (122 m).

Aerodromes

More than 9.3 km (5 NM) from listed aerodromes.

Planning

Validate every box in NAV Drone / NRC before launch.

Criteria

What we look for in a first site

Low density

Few people and light traffic under or beside the route.

Quiet airspace

Mostly uncontrolled. Little interaction with scheduled traffic.

High stakes assets

When the picture matters, the customer funds the program.

Budget for outcomes

Room in the OPEX line for flight-time billing.

Dock footprint

Power, security, and a pad we can bolt to.

Repeat missions

Routes you will fly again, not one-off demos.

Roadmap

Pilot program

Four gates from paper to steady-state ops. Expand or stop at each gate with data.

Phase 0 (2–4 weeks)

Site + Compliance

Airspace review and site selection
Standard operating procedures
Risk assessment and mitigation plan
Dock placement and infrastructure review

Phase 1 (6–8 weeks)

Baseline Missions

Repeatable route execution
QA metrics and data quality validation
Data delivery pipeline testing
Operator workflow integration

Phase 2 (4–8 weeks)

On-Demand Dispatch

24/7 readiness posture
Response drills and SLA validation
Workflow automation
Customer portal training

Phase 3 (Ongoing)

Scale Decision

Multi-dock rollout planning
Contract terms and SLA finalization
Additional site approvals
Expanded mission library

Key performance indicators

Time-to-launch

Mission completion rate

Data delivery latency

Detection/ID precision & recall

Customer decision-time reduction

Cost per km² / per route-km

Tell us the site and the first question you need the aircraft to answer. We respond with a scoped pilot, not a generic deck.

Location

Why Newfoundland and Labrador first

Heavy industry in one province

Offshore, Labrador mines, and aquaculture coastlines. One team can support all of it.

Home base in St. John's

Engineering bench, hangar space, and logistics for coastal and northern deployments.

Room to build a case

Large stretches of Class G airspace mean we can collect clean operational history.
