Flight inspection is an important way to verify and evaluate the integrity and effectiveness of flight procedures, civil aviation communications, navigation and surveillance equipment. It is directly related to the safety of civil aviation. Traditional flight inspection is completed by adding special flight inspection equipment to high-performance aircraft. This paper mainly studies a new flight inspection method based on unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV). The feasibility, difficulties, advantages and risks of UAV flight inspection are discussed in this paper. This method may be implemented in the next five to ten years.
