West Wales Airport runs a licensed aerodrome holding a CAA licence for public transport flights, and it uses that aerodrome to host unmanned aircraft activity — serving general aviation visitors alongside UAS operations in a restricted flying area and providing dedicated segregated airspace for UAS test and evaluation — rather than acting only as a general aviation airfield. A UAS training school operates at West Wales Airport.
The airport is positioned as a national hub for unmanned systems testing and evaluation, with airspace supporting the full spectrum from line-of-sight to beyond-visual-line-of-sight missions. It serves military and civilian unmanned systems operators, including domestic and international customers.
The service provides unmanned aircraft operators dedicated segregated airspace for test and evaluation from line-of-sight to beyond-visual-line-of-sight missions.
