The incident involving the DJI FlyCart30 drone highlights serious safety and legal violations in aviation operations. The drone, a powerful industrial model designed for heavy lifting, was used during a public event in Sofia, where it was flown over people without necessary safety measures, such as warnings or proper markings. The operator illegally lifted a person weighing approximately 90 kg, far exceeding the drone’s certified weight capacity, and operated without required licenses, insurance, or coordination with aviation authorities.

Such actions, particularly in controlled airspace near Sofia’s airport, violate key regulations outlined by European aviation authorities. These include the necessity for a licensed operator, proper risk assessment, insurance coverage, and filing a flight plan with air traffic control. Operating in adverse weather conditions, such as fog, without necessary precautions, further amplified the risks.

The consequences of these breaches could include heavy fines for the operator and event organizers, potential revocation of licenses, and even criminal charges if proven that negligence led to harm. The situation serves as a stark reminder of the importance of strict adherence to aviation safety regulations, especially when human lives are at risk. This case reflects broader concerns about the safety of drone operations in Bulgaria, where illegal and unsafe practices in light aviation remain an ongoing challenge.
