SAFETY CODE

  • I will not fly model aircraft within 5 miles of an airport without consent of the operator.

  • I will yield to piloted aircraft with no exceptions.  Model flying must cease when piloted aircraft are in the proximity of model airport facilities.

  •  I will not knowingly operate a radio-controlled aircraft within 3 miles (5km) of a pre-existing model club’s flying site without a frequency sharing agreement with that club.

  • I will use only radio control systems approved for model aircraft use by the Department of Communications Canada.

  • I will assure that my flying area is safely clear of all nonessential participants and spectators before permitting my engine to be started.

  • I will abide by the Safety Code and Field Rules for the flying site I use.

  • I will not fly my model aircraft in the presence of spectators until it has been proven to be airworthy by having been successfully flight-tested.

  • I will not willfully and deliberately fly my models in a careless, reckless, and / or dangerous manner.

  • I will not use internally mounted, liquid fueled, pulse jets or rocket engines in my model aircraft because of the danger of fire.
