Flying in Rodez: the local context

Prefecture of the Aveyron perched at 632 m on a spur above the Aveyron river, Rodez is crowned by the Notre-Dame cathedral and its 87-metre pink-sandstone bell tower, a flamboyant-Gothic masterpiece visible for kilometres. The Soulages museum, a Corten-steel showcase for the local master of black, has put the city on the international cultural map. Rodez-Aveyron airport (LFCR) at Salles-la-Source, to the north-west, serves Paris and imposes its regulated surroundings.

The local economy relies on agri-food (RAGT seeds, Aubrac and Ségala beef), mechanical industry (Bosch in transition) and services. The Millau viaduct, 45 minutes away, and the Aveyron gorges widen the drone pilot's playground. Common missions: livestock and agriculture, heritage and tourism (Conques nearby), real estate, construction monitoring, industrial communication.
