Resumo
The increasing density of low-altitude air traffic—driven by the growing use of remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS)—has raised new safety concerns, especially in uncontrolled airspace also used by manned aviation. This paper investigates the systemic risks of shared low-altitude airspace through a human factors lens. Using the Human Factors Analysis and Classification System (HFACS), we analyze the contributing factors in a documented mid-air collision between a drone and a manned aircraft in Toronto, Canada. In parallel, we examine current regulatory frameworks and highlight structural limitations in airspace governance. The results reveal latent failures across supervisory and organizational levels, suggesting the need for integrated management approaches and context-adapted risk mitigation strategies.
