UAS operations manual template pack (specific category)
Draft an organisation-wide UAS operations manual and link it to crew, aircraft, flight-planning and change records.
Problem
The manual needs to agree with the aircraft, crew, sites and procedures used by the operator. A change in one record can affect several other documents. This pack provides a manual structure and linked records for the operator to complete and review.
Outcome
Draft an organisation-wide UAS operations manual and link it to crew, aircraft, flight-planning and change records.

FAQ
What do we need to start?
Identify your operation, the route you intend to use and the person who will review the work. Gather your own aircraft, crew, site and procedure evidence, and complete a first record before expanding the manual.
Are worked examples included?
Yes. Synthetic teaching records are supplied separately in Examples. Replace their invented facts with your own evidence; they are not operational permissions or accepted risks.
Does it replace our manual or existing arrangements?
It provides an organisation-wide structure that you must complete for your operation. STS Declaration and SORA Readiness are separate optional support; the manual pack does not supply all route-specific procedures.
Which sources does the pack refer to, and where do we check them?
Sources.docx refers to Regulation (EU) 2019/947, EASA operations-manual guidance and Luftfartstilsynet route guidance. Its separate-method pointer identifies SORA 2.5 as JAR-DEL-SRM-SORA-MB-2.5, edition 2.5, 13 May 2024. Check whether the cited rules apply to you and use the linked current texts, route guidance and authority conditions.
What happens when rules or operations change?
Review the manual and linked records when rules, operations or authority conditions change. Use the change record to identify affected manual sections, source revisions, briefing and checks before use.
Who owns the content we write in it?
You may fill in, adapt and build on the templates, forms, registers and worksheets and use the result as your own operational document. You may give the completed result, but not the pack itself, to a regulator, auditor, insurer or client. You may not redistribute the pack or use it to deliver paid services to third parties.

The purchase is perpetual and the update subscription is optional. If you subscribe, you receive revised files when the regulatory baseline changes; if you let it lapse, you keep everything you already have. A lapsed subscription costs you updates, never access.
Licence and VAT
Personal, one named user and Organisation, one legal entity. Both are one-off and perpetual: you keep the files.
How merverdiavgift is charged
The seller is RMX DRIFT AS, organisation number 931 140 574, registered for merverdiavgift in Norway. Every product here is an electronic service for MVA purposes, so the rate is decided by where you are established and whether you are buying as a business or as a private individual.
If you are in Norway, you are charged 25 per cent MVA on top of the kroner list price. The final column above is that total, and it is the amount a private buyer in Norway pays. A Norwegian business or public body is charged the same 25 per cent and can normally reclaim it as input MVA through its own return, so the ex-MVA column is the real cost to you.
If you are a business or public body established outside Norway, the sale is zero-rated as a remotely deliverable service under merverdiavgiftsloven section 6-22. You are charged the list price with no Norwegian MVA added, and you account for any VAT due in your own country under the reverse charge. Enter your organisation or VAT number at checkout: without it we cannot treat the sale as a business supply and MVA is added.
We do not currently sell to private individuals outside Norway. A sale to a consumer in another country would make us liable to register and account for that country’s VAT from the first sale, and we have chosen not to take that on until the volume justifies it. If you are buying for professional use, purchase through your employer or company and enter its number, or get in touch.
Prices are reviewed twice a year and the two currency lists are held close to parity, so switching currency saves you almost nothing. Nothing on this page is tax advice; if your situation is unusual, ask your own adviser.
