FAQ

What does Uncrewed Approvals do?

Uncrewed Approvals helps Australian drone operators obtain and maintain the approvals they need to operate professionally. Our services include ReOC assessments, ReOC variations, operational authorisations, customised manuals, risk documentation, and professional development courses for RPAS operators.

How long does it take to obtain a ReOC through Uncrewed Approvals?

Most ReOC assessments are completed within two weeks, provided the applicant responds promptly to the assessment scenario and any follow-up questions. In some cases, we have completed assessments and issued a ReOC in as little as 18 hours, although the timeframe depends heavily on applicant readiness and response times.

Do you provide the operations manual as part of the ReOC process?

Yes. Clients receive a customised RPAS Operations Manual as part of the ReOC assessment pathway. The manual is tailored to the applicant’s organisation, intended operations, personnel structure, aircraft types, and procedures, rather than being a generic template.

Can Uncrewed Approvals help existing ReOC holders expand their operational scope?

Yes. We assist existing ReOC holders with variations and additional approvals, including changes to aircraft types, key personnel, operating conditions, EVLOS, night operations, controlled aerodrome operations, and more complex or specialised RPAS activities.

Who are Uncrewed Approvals’ services designed for?

Our services are designed for serious RPAS operators, training organisations, businesses, government agencies, and existing ReOC holders who need a clear, practical pathway through CASA’s regulatory requirements. We focus on making the approval process easier to understand, easier to manage, and aligned with real-world drone operations.

Our work is measured not only by approvals delivered, but by the confidence of those we support.

“Having used Uncrewed Approvals for my ReOC Application and Approval process, I found them to be very professional and prompt in their responses. Steve Griffin, the CASA Delegate and Chief Examiner, has a wealth of knowledge in the aviation industry and I would not hesitate recommending his services to anyone wishing to apply for their own ReOC.”

— Mark L.

“Uncrewed Approvals made the whole process of gaining our ReOC extremely simple and straightforward. Steve guided us through the process, helping demystify the complexities of record keeping and our regulatory responsibilities. I highly recommend Uncrewed Approvals to any organisation heading down this path.”

— Michael W.

“The knowledge that both gentlemen have in the field of RPAS, CASA Rules & Regulations and the ability to mix in real life experience is impressive.
