The drone entering the airport not only caused delays in flight landings but also posed a serious threat to aviation safety. This issue has become increasingly common as the phenomenon of "black flying" — unauthorized drone use — continues to rise across various airports.
According to a report by the *Daily Economic News*, in the first half of this year, the Civil Aviation Administration received 44 reports about flights affected by drones. That’s an increase of 37 cases compared to the same period last year. Additionally, 790 flights were impacted, which is 689 more than the previous year. These numbers highlight the growing concern around drone interference in airspace.
On November 23, Baiyun Airport became the first in the country to trial its "UAV Detection and Defense System." The system consists of two key components: a "defensive detection and early warning system" and an "unmanned aircraft interference system," commonly known as the Cangwu system. It can detect and accurately locate a drone within just three seconds after it is turned on, and then use precise electromagnetic interference to force it to land or stop operating within the controlled area.
The system has a detection range of up to 13 kilometers in diameter, making it highly effective for monitoring and controlling UAVs in open environments. According to technical staff at Baiyun Airport, the system can monitor, detect, and track drones within an 8-kilometer radius and operate effectively regardless of weather conditions or time of day.
Currently, the Cangwu system has been installed and commissioned at the southern end of the East Runway, where it monitors low-altitude airspace during critical landing phases. The system is designed to minimize disruptions and ensure the safety of the airport perimeter.
Experts have confirmed that the UAV interference equipment used in the system has minimal impact on airport operations, including navigation systems and airborne equipment. This makes it a reliable tool for managing drone threats without compromising normal flight activities.
A senior drone operator emphasized the importance of using technical solutions to guide responsible flying. He urged drone users to follow regulations and protect civil aviation safety. As the number of drone-related incidents continues to rise, the need for better oversight and enforcement becomes more urgent.
In response to these challenges, the Civil Aviation Administration has taken several steps, including releasing the first batch of 155 airport protection zone data, defining no-fly zones around airports, and implementing real-name registration for drones. Since June 1st, all drones must be registered, and failure to do so after August 31st could result in legal consequences.
However, despite these measures, experts like Qi Qi point out that registration alone does not fully solve the problem. Effective drone regulation requires collaboration between multiple agencies and continuous technological innovation. As the popularity of drones grows, so too must the strategies to manage their safe and responsible use.
