<p>The Civil Aviation Authority’s (CAA) consultation document explains that the predicted
170,000 unmanned aircraft operator registration figure has been calculated using adoption
rates for other national registration schemes (such as those in Ireland and the United
States) against the UK population, and available research on drone use and attitudes.</p><p>
</p><p>The document also sets out the rationale for the cost of ongoing upgrades to
the service. The initial scheme will be launched with a minimum scope and service
level and, in common with best practice and the Government Digital Service framework,
the CAA plans to make minor service improvements and major functionality improvements.
Major improvements may include a renewal invitation process and incorporate the existing
unmanned aircraft service for commercial operators.</p><p> </p>
