Aloft Applied sciences, Inc. DroneBase, a leading provider of drone fleet and airspace management services, has announced that it has received Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) approval for its B4UFLY provider. As the #1 provider of LAANC airspace authorizations for both amateur and professional drone pilots, Aloft further cements its commitment to developing innovative tools for the largest user group of the National Airspace System, the drone operating community.
Between 2019 and 2023, Aloft collaborated on a pioneering public-private partnership with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) to revamp and modernize the B4UFLY software. Within the past five years, the B4UFLY platform has successfully conducted more than 30 million airspace security checks, resulting in significantly improved compliance and security for both recreational fliers and certified half 107 pilots.
“At Aloft, our perpetual quest has been to pioneer and provide aviation solutions that empower the skies,” said Jon Hegranes, CEO and Founder of Aloft. “Becoming an FAA-approved supplier for B4UFLY providers serves as a testament to our unwavering commitment to bolstering aviation security and compliance.” “We’re thrilled to take on new challenges and push the limits of what’s possible within the NAS.”
Looking ahead, Aloft aims to further innovate on its Air Conscious platform by incorporating enhanced mapping capabilities and introducing optimized LAANC functionality. This evolutionary leap will provide individual drone pilots with a comprehensive suite of tools for secure and compliant flight operations, seamlessly integrated within a single, intuitive software platform.
We’ll establish Air Conscious as a dedicated platform for individual drone pilots, while continuing to support our enterprise and government clients with Aloft’s Air Management platform for superior fleet and airspace management.
Aloft solidifies its partnership with Pilot Institute, a leading FAA-TRUST provider, further expanding its offerings by becoming an FAA-approved B4UFLY provider and strengthening its role as title sponsor for the Air Conscious software. This collaborative effort provides pilots with seamless access to crucial academic resources and cutting-edge tools essential for conducting safe and reliable drone operations. To integrate scholarly resources and tools, we will facilitate the development of a comprehensive online platform for pilots to master navigation within the National Airspace System (NAS) while ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements.
