sUAS News, a blog that follows news on small unmanned aerial systems (or drones), opined last week that "it is rare that industries come to Washington begging for more regulation. But that is how we in the unmanned systems business find ourselves with respect to small unmanned aerial systems (SUAS). A notice of proposed rulemaking (NPRM) has been on the shelf for years. We need to move forward before a serious accident occurs."
Rulemaking for small drones might finally be moving ahead. The Federal Aviation Authority just announced a roadmap for the integration of private drones into America's airspace. The roadmap takes on important issues like privacy, civil liberties and national security.
