Flying in Laval: the local context

Prefecture of the Mayenne, Laval is built around its medieval castle with a unique wooden-hoarded keep, the old bridge and the banks of the Mayenne where France's last wash-boats survive. Birthplace of Henri Rousseau, it cultivates a fertile paradox: a town of art and history, it is also a recognised technology hub with Laval Virtual, the international virtual and augmented reality trade show. Laval-Entrammes aerodrome (LFOV) to the south is the main flight constraint.

The Mayenne economy enjoys near-full employment driven by food processing (Lactalis, the world's largest dairy group, is headquartered in Laval), electronics and mechanics. Typical drone missions: industrial and agri-food communication, construction monitoring, dairy farming and bocage crops, heritage and river tourism along the towpath of the Mayenne.
