ABOUT ALTITUDE UAV SOLUTIONS

SIMON LEACH - FOUNDER

I started in Stonemasonry at the age of 16, getting a city in guilds and advanced craft in stone masonry and now, I have spent more than 30 years in stone masonry. It occurred to me that after this many years in stone masonry and an interest in aircraft, I thought of combining the two, feeling sure that was an easier safer and cheaper way of inspecting the stone work with a live feed from the ground.

I have always had an interest in helicopters from a very young age. My interest grew through the years and I had the chance to fly a helicopter. I was unable to finance flying a helicopter full-time and for a job and so the next best thing was to move into Model helicopters and aircraft.

I gained my PFCO as it was then which is permission for commercial operation later on gaining a to A2 C of C and GVC as it is now currently for the UK airspace. These are all the qualifications needed for flying drones commercially. All drones are CAA compliant with full commercial insurance.
