Flying in Aurillac: the local context

Prefecture of the Cantal, Aurillac spreads at the foot of Europe's largest volcano — the Cantal stratovolcano, whose Puy Mary, a Grand Site de France, peaks at 1,783 m. The old town with its stone-slab roofs, the Saint-Étienne castle and the Jordanne quays form the urban setting; in August the International Street Theatre Festival, Europe's largest of its kind, transforms the city and triggers overflight-ban orders. Aurillac-Tronquières aerodrome (LFLW), with a scheduled service to Paris, borders the town to the south.

Historic cradle of French umbrella-making and a cheese capital (Cantal and Salers AOPs), the local economy lives on food production, livestock farming and public services. Typical drone missions: livestock and summer pastures (counting, monitoring), Cantal mountains tourism — respecting wildlife quiet zones —, real estate, construction monitoring and communication for the cheese sector.
