A Flylogix drone has completed what the company describes as the first civilian cross-border drone flight from the UK. The aircraft flew from Tingwall Airport on the Shetland Islands to Equinorβs Statfjord B offshore platform in Norwegian waters and then returned to Shetland. The BVLOS mission covered 290 nautical miles (537 km), took 4 hours and 50 minutes, and included a methane emissions survey at the offshore installation.
