George from the air
George is the main town of the Garden Route, wedged between the forested Outeniqua Mountains and the sea. Drone work covers tourism and wedding footage at Wilderness and Herold's Bay, property marketing on golf estates, and inspections for timber plantations and dairy farms inland. The Garden Route National Park covers the Wilderness lakes and parts of the coast, and drones need permission there. George Airport sits south-west of town, so much of the area is controlled airspace. Coastal weather changes fast, with sea mist, drizzle and gusty wind off the mountains. Many operators also serve Mossel Bay and Knysna from here.
The requests we see from George usually come from:
- Photographers, film crews and agencies: an extra drone for a licensed crew on a large shoot
- Estate agents and developers: a short hire to test whether aerial photos suit the agency's listings
