Additional safety measures are built into our software and animation processes to ensure safe in-air execution. Finally, our pilots and on-site crew follow rigorous procedures before and during takeoff to maintain the highest safety standards throughout the show.

Drone shows offer a variety of benefits including increased brand visibility, brand differentiation, increased engagement with audience, and a futuristic approach to storytelling. Additionally, drone light shows are fully customizable, eco-friendly, non-disruptive, and safe for children and pets. Not to mention, they are quite mesmerizing to see in the sky!
We establish a clearly marked area designating the space underneath and surrounding the show, in which all non-crew members are strictly prohibited from entering this area. Additionally, we have trained Visual Observers positioned around the outer area. These observers monitor the airways and foot traffic to ensure there is no unauthorized access, ensuring a secure environment is maintained for both the audience, as well as the drones performing. Furthermore, safety measures are implemented within the computer software and animation process to ensure safe execution in-air.
One pilot, certified by the FAA under Part 107, is required. However, Aerial Illuminations goes above and beyond this standard by requiring a pilot and a co-pilot, both certified under Part 107. Our pilots work closely alongside each other to manage tasks that improve safety, efficiency, and mission control during operations.
