Flying in Belfort: the local context

Strategic lock of the Belfort Gap, the city is dominated by its Vauban citadel and Bartholdi's monumental Lion (22 m long), carved in pink sandstone to honour the resistance of 1870-71: two spectacular aerial subjects above the pink old town. Belfort-Chaux aerodrome (LFGG) to the north and the proximity of the EuroAirport and Swiss airspace (some forty kilometres away) call for careful chart reading, along with sensitive industrial estates.

Belfort is a French energy capital: gas and steam turbines (General Electric/Alstom), hydrogen (McPhy), rail manufacturing in Belfort-Montbéliard with Alstom, and the vehicle-of-the-future cluster. Typical drone missions: industrial communication, roof and energy-facility inspection, construction monitoring, images of the Eurockéennes festival site (under conditions) at the Malsaucy lake, and memorial tourism around the fortifications.
