  • 🇮🇸 Icelandic Record: 21 Ultralights in Formation

    Click to see the best event pictures On 29 May 2025 , Iceland set a new milestone in aviation history: 21 ultralight aircraft  took off together in coordinated formation, circling the country from Hólmsheiði  to Selfoss , over Þingvellir National Park , and back via Tungubakki . A feat of organization, safety, and modern technology. What made this unprecedented flight possible was SafeSky . Every aircraft used the app to see each other in real-time , maintaining formation and spacing without ever needing to ask: “Where are you?” Jonas S Sverisson , the event's organiser and Board Member of the European Microlight Federation said: “All aircraft of the trip used the SafeSky app, which proved very efficient. All were visible when taking off and in flight. In the air, they did not need to ask the others ‘Where are you?’. 
And, for all our friends on the ground: their flight was visible live in real-time worldwide! ”   While the aircraft were not visible on conventional tracking systems like Flightradar24, SafeSky ensured continuous, live visibility  — both for fellow pilots in the air and for observers on the ground. SafeSky transforms a pilot’s smartphone into a connected traffic-sharing tool. No extra hardware needed.  It provides the best of eConspicuity in a lightweight, mobile-friendly form, especially ideal for ultralight and recreational aviation. This record-setting event is a shining example of how SafeSky brings pilots together, increasing both safety and enjoyment . It’s not just a tool, it’s a new standard for modern airspace awareness . 🎥 Watch the take-off:   YouTube video 📸 Photo & video highlights:   Google Photos album

  • AERO 2025: A New Era of Airspace Safety for all pilots

    The skies are busier than ever with more and more flights and aircraft types. In addition, with the explosive rise of drone activities across Europe, a new generation of alert systems for pilots is no longer a luxury. Mid-air collisions and near-misses remain a critical concern. At AERO 2025, SafeSky, alongside key industry leaders and EASA, took center stage in shaping the next chapter of aviation safety. Why Now? The foundation of Visual Flight Rules (VFR) is “See and Avoid.” But today, that’s no longer enough . Modern skies are filled with a mix of traditional aircraft and new drone traffic, and the human eye simply can’t detect everything, especially small, fast-moving aircraft that can’t “see” you neither. National radar systems focus on controlled airspace and commercial flights. That leaves a massive gap at lower altitudes where much of general aviation and drone operations happen. If we don’t bridge this gap, the future of our freedom to fly is at risk. The Solution: Electronic Conspicuity (EC) “Looking out” will always be essential, but today’s pilots need digital support too. That’s where Electronic Conspicuity (EC) comes in: a system that makes all airspace users electronically visible, significantly boosting situational awareness and safety. In addition, EASA’s Conspicuity Declaration , introduced at AERO 2025, aims to break down barriers to adoption. Crucially, it guarantees that pilots’ electronic data will not be used for penalties, but rather as a tool for safety and “just culture.” 🔗 Read the Declaration EASA New Standards for EC EASA now recognises multiple technical ways to achieve eConspicuity: • ADS-B (certified) – the gold standard in many modern aircraft. • ADS-L (868 MHz, license-free) – for traffic awareness at close range. • ADS-L 4 Mobile (via cellular networks) – uplinking and downlinking traffic, weather, and flight information over LTE. Aircraft equipped with such systems are ‘visible’ in two ways :
 directly in the air for other pilots that have receiver equipment on board indirectly via ground stations that capture their signals. These signals can be sent to pilots via LTE / mobile telephony Mobile Telephony: Already a Game-Changer While full-scale ADS-L 4 Mobile is on its way, pilots are already benefiting from mobile-based visibility: SafeSky, among others, provides 80% coverage up to 5,000 ft AGL across Europe The technology has proven effective precisely where pilots face the highest statistical risk of mid-air collisions: below 2000ft in the vicinity of non-controlled airfields,, especially when the pilots is not familiar with the circuit over tourist hotspots and coastal areas. Above 5,000 ft AGL, pilots are typically within controlled airspace, where the risk of mid-air collisions is significantly lower. With 85,000+ pilots using SafeSky and 100,000 more on partner apps (AirNavPro, EASYVFR, Gaggle, Flymaster, Syride, etc.), there is already a huge leap forward in visibility. And soon, thanks to satellite-based LTE (LEO networks) for unmodified phones , even remote areas without mobile coverage will be connected. Solutions like Starlink, OneWeb, Kuiper, and IRIS2 are leading the way, and LEO mobile connectivity will become a commodity service in the air for all pilots. The ADS-L Coalition At AERO 2025, EASA also succeeded in uniting nearly all major device and software producers in a joint declaration. They all committed to support ADS-L and its further development to enhance situational awareness whether in the air or on the ground. 🔗 Read more here: https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/domains/general-aviation/%21conspicuity The First Full ADS-L Device on the Market A major highlight at AERO: the debut of the AVIONIX Aero-Tracker , the first true ADS-L device with SafeSky technology built in. This groundbreaking device: • Transmits and receives ADS-L signals air-to-air , • Includes a SIM card for internet access, allowing it to send and receive SafeSky traffic via ADS-L Mobile . Even without internet access (e.g., at higher altitudes), it continues to broadcast and receive signals directly from nearby aircraft—ensuring you remain visible at all times. With SafeSky fully integrated, no smartphone app is required, the entire system is embedded within the device. Attention: Stay Vigilant ! Remember, no system is perfect. Some traffic remains invisible: Mode S transponders out of ground station range, Pilots or drones not transmitting their position. So, keep practicing smart flying: Equip your aircraft with ADS-B or ADS-L. Use cooperative devices like SafeSky. Enlist your passenger as a vigilant second pair of eyes. Use radio traffic information Educate fellow pilots to be visible. Advocate for more ground stations at your airfield. Fly Safe everyone, The SafeSky Team

  • Romvesen AS Partners with SafeSky to Enhance Airspace Visibility and Safety in Norway

    Bremanger, Norway – [01.03.25] – Romvesen AS, a leading innovator in large scale autonomous drone operations and aerial infrastructure monitoring, is proud to announce a strategic partnership with SafeSky, a European leader in real-time traffic awareness for general aviation. This collaboration marks a major step forward in ensuring safe and transparent integration of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) into shared airspace. At Romvesen AS , the mission is to provide cutting-edge aerial solutions for infrastructure inspection , environmental monitoring , agriculture , and public service support using autonomous drone technology . As our operations increasingly intersect with manned aviation , the need for real-time situational awareness and airspace visibility has become critical.   Through partnership with SafeSky , Romvesen AS now integrates live air traffic data into their UAS operations , significantly enhancing ability to detect and avoid nearby manned aircraft. SafeSky’s advanced traffic-awareness platform allows Romvesen drones to “see and be seen” by other airspace users, increasing safety and building trust across the aviation ecosystem . “We are thrilled to collaborate with SafeSky” , said Ove Kristian Leirgulen, CEO at Romvesen AS. “This partnership strengthens our commitment to safe and responsible drone operations and helps us lead the way in harmonizing unmanned and manned aviation .” “This partnership with Romvesen demonstrates how innovative bi-directional traffic technology can significantly improve safety for all,” said Tristan Fily, CEO of SafeSky. “By enabling manned pilots, from general aviation to free flight, to see drones in real time, and to be seen by Romvesen’s autonomous systems, we are turning the vision of a truly shared and safer sky into reality .”
