Nicosia, Aug 16 (CNA) -- Cyprus Department of Civil Aviation has banned flights of homebuilt microlight and ultralight aircraft as well as the use of fields, roads and beaches as landing and take-off strips, without prior permission, saying they could endanger life and public property and pose danger to the rest of air traffic.
