UAS Airworthiness and Type Certificates

This is a list of all UAS operated by the University of Colorado. All of these aircraft have type certificates. Type certificates are granted to UAS that meet CU airworthiness standards and can therefore be operated in the national airspace system under CU owned COAS. Type certificates are broken into 2 categories: operational and experimental.Ìý

An experimental airworthiness certificate allows an aircraft to fly under certain conditions and limitations.Ìý

All UAS developed by the University of Colorado must undergo an airworthiness assessment and receive a type certificate before operating in the national airspace system. This includes all student projects.Ìý
