In 2020 Poland’s largest national park struggled to tackle the worst fire in decades. When a vast number of water bombing missions started, a completely unknown before safety issue arose: the amount of low-flying manned aircrafts forced a full grounding of the Polish State Fire Service UAV fleet, partially blinding forces on the ground.

The complete reservation of airspace currently prevails as a go-to solution to ensure safe flights during emergencies. To address that gap, Space Research Centre together with State Fire Service and Polish Air Navigation Services Agency started discussing possible alternatives in area of Aircraft Operations Coordination for Emergency and Rescue.

A year later a study exercise was organised (coupled with regular exercises of forces) to test innovative approach to airspace management. Several aircrafts, both manned and unmanned worked safely together in the course of two days. Developments following this unprecedented experiment will allow (and ease) safe and legal drone operations during large –scale emergencies. As an outcome, we will see more separation and less reservation in the usage of airspace in the following years.
