WARNING: RESTRICTED AIRSPACE

Due to the dynamic nature of aerospace test and evaluation and to protect national security, overflight of Edwards Air Force Base and Plant 42 by personally owned drones is prohibited, and private aviation overflight of Plant 42 is only authorized when the airfield is not active for Defense Department or mission-partner use. Unless prior permission has been obtained from the appropriate airspace management office, the airspace over Plant 42 when DoD active and Edwards AFB at all times must be avoided both laterally and vertically.

Unauthorized unmanned aircraft systems – drones – over Edwards and Plant 42 may be disabled, damaged, destroyed, seized or confiscated, and unauthorized operators may be subject to criminal prosecution, fines and loss of operator privileges.
