The fields of application and types of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) have expanded more and more. As a result of this expansion, countries' applicable legislation, as well as generally accepted rules, are changing. Otherwise, uncontrolled UAV use is very prone to damage to other aircraft, structures, or people. Therefore, this research comprises a qualitative review as well as a comparative analysis of professionals who have worked with UAV piloting and operations for years, as well as the industry and other institutions involved. In addition, the Turkish UAV industry and applications were probed. In Turkey, the number of UAV pilots and registered UAVs is increasing at a rate of 55 percent each year. The clear and evolving nature of the regulations, as well as the training institutes' use of a large and qualified workforce, encourage individuals to pursue UAV training. UAVs, on the other hand, are likely to be developed to meet insurance and flight permission requirements.

Anahtar Kelimeler

Türkiye'deki İnsansız Hava Araçlarının Uçuş İzinlerinin Değerlendirilmesi

Öz

İnsansız Hava Araçlarının (İHA) kullanım alanları ve kullanım çeşidi her geçen gün artmaktadır. Bu artış beraberinde her ülkenin ilgili mevzuatları geliştirmesine ve genel kabul görmüş kurallar getirmesine neden olmaktadır. Aksi halde kontrolsüz İHA kullanımının diğer hava araçlarına, yapılara veya insanlara zarar verme olasılığını artıracaktır. Bu nedenle çalışmada Türkiye’de uzun yıllardır İHA pilotluğu ve işletmeciliği yapan kişilerle sektörün, diğer kurumlarla olan karşılaştırmalı analizi ile niteliksel değerlendirmesi yapılmıştır. Ayrıca Türkiye’deki İHA sektörü ve İHA uygulamaları anlatılmıştır. Türkiye’deki İHA pilot sayısı ile kayıtlı İHA sayısı her yıl yaklaşık % 55 artış gözlenmektedir. Mevzuatın açık ve sürekli gelişiyor olması, eğitim kurumlarının fazla ve yetkin kişilerden oluşması insanların İHA eğitimi almalarını teşvik ettiği görülmüştür. Diğer taraftan İHA’ların sigortalama ve uçuş izin konularında gelişmesi beklenmektedir.
