澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會創(chuàng)建于2009年,起初由七家經(jīng)澳大利亞民航安全局認(rèn)證的無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)運營商組建,現(xiàn)發(fā)展為八家。2010年3月31日,協(xié)會正式在澳大利亞昆士蘭州注冊,是一家專業(yè)的非營利性協(xié)會組織。
澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會是全球首家商業(yè)化的無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)運營商協(xié)會。最近幾年,歐洲及美洲等地有相類似的組織機(jī)構(gòu)正在逐步的發(fā)展起來。協(xié)會的發(fā)展重心在“運營商”,這就有別于其他一些研究性或市場導(dǎo)向的行業(yè)組織,這一類的行業(yè)組織一般不會展現(xiàn)如今日新月異的商用航空事業(yè)的機(jī)遇及挑戰(zhàn),或者說它們不會太過關(guān)注航空設(shè)備運營的情況。從這一點上來看,澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會是澳大利亞國內(nèi)無人機(jī)行業(yè)中唯一一家直接關(guān)系到無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)商業(yè)發(fā)展情況的協(xié)會。
澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會的發(fā)展章程明確了其主要職責(zé):
保護(hù)經(jīng)澳大利亞民航安全局認(rèn)證的無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)運營商;
將協(xié)會發(fā)展成為社會責(zé)任感強的權(quán)威機(jī)構(gòu);
推動澳大利亞地區(qū)商用無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)的發(fā)展及壯大。
澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會擁有十多年的商用無人機(jī)運營經(jīng)驗,在無人機(jī)安全方面更是毫無瑕疵。早在2002年11月份,澳大利亞國內(nèi)就就已經(jīng)逐步開始了商用無人機(jī)的運營,迄今為止,澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會的成員公司已進(jìn)行了數(shù)年商用無人機(jī)的操作、運營,未出現(xiàn)過一例意外事故。
澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會成員這一“零事故”記錄是一項極大的成就,符合協(xié)會發(fā)展的初衷及宗旨:不斷提高無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)操作機(jī)運營的安全標(biāo)準(zhǔn),加強對無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)操作的風(fēng)險管理。
澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會是國際無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)協(xié)會(總部設(shè)在法國)的一家非法人性質(zhì)的合作成員機(jī)構(gòu)。同時,澳大利亞無人機(jī)運營商協(xié)會還是澳大利亞在國際遠(yuǎn)程控制飛行器系統(tǒng)發(fā)展協(xié)會委員會的代表機(jī)構(gòu)。國際遠(yuǎn)程控制飛行器系統(tǒng)發(fā)展協(xié)會委員會由國際無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)協(xié)會組建,是一家全球性的權(quán)威機(jī)構(gòu),主要負(fù)責(zé)制定遠(yuǎn)程控制飛行器系統(tǒng)行業(yè)相關(guān)的一些標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。
另外,協(xié)會還參與到國際其他多個遠(yuǎn)程控制飛行器系統(tǒng)協(xié)會的合作之中,積極推進(jìn)商用無人機(jī)系統(tǒng)的革新發(fā)展,包括為成員提供安全保險,飛行團(tuán)隊培訓(xùn)及資質(zhì)認(rèn)證,設(shè)備維護(hù)及技術(shù)支持等。
About ACUO
The Association of Australian Certified UAV Operators Inc. (ACUO) began in 2009 with seven of the then eight CASA certified UAV operators, and was formally registered as a not-for-profit association in the State of Queensland on the 31st March 2010.
ACUO was the first commercial UAV Operator association of its type in the world however in the last couple of years we have seen similarly focussed associations being formed in Europe and the Americas. This ‘Operator’ focus stands in contrast to the acknowledged existence of generic, marketing-oriented industry bodies, which do not address the challenges of day to day commercial aviation activity, or “Aerial Work Operations”. In this respect, ACUO is the only UAV industry body directly representing the commercial sector of unmanned aviation in Australia.
ACUO is bound by its Constitution to:
Protect the interests of CASA Certified UAV Operators;
Establish the association as a responsible authority and;
Promote the growth and expansion of the commercial UAV industry in Australia。
The ACUO membership has decades of experience in commercial UAV operations and an impeccable record of safety. Since commercial UAV operations formally began in this country in November 2002, there has not been a single accident or incident resulting from ACUO member’s thousands of hours of commercial UAV flight operations.
This record of achievement by ACUO members is a major source of pride and is a status we are eager to protect by maintaining the highest standards of safety and risk management.
ACUO is a Non-Corporate Partner Organisation member of UVS International, the global unmanned systems industry association headquartered in Paris. ACUO is Australia’s representative on the International RPAS Coordination Council, a prestigious industry body initiated by UVS International to coordinate RPAS standards globally.
ACUO also participates in a variety of international RPAS committees focusing on issues of importance to the commercial sector of unmanned aviation, including Insurance, Flight-Crew Training & Licencing and Airworthiness & Maintenance.
