Regulatory and Stakeholder Perspectives on the Future of UAS
The number of remote pilots using drones across an array of industries has opened the door for increased efficiency and productivity, but has also ushered in new challenges. Join AUVSI and industry stakeholders for a discussion of the evolving regulatory landscape and what it means for the drone industry.
Frank discussions between regulators and the drone community are important as both groups grapple with the safe integration of our technology into the national airspace. This webinar will provide community members with the opportunity to hear directly from regulators and ask their most pressing questions.

UASTF makes recommendations on UAS regulations in Michigan
The Unmanned Aircraft Systems Task Force (UASTF) has released a report of recommendations that it presented to Michigan Governor Rick Snyder and the state Legislature regarding UAS.
The report presents a desire to have a regulatory environment that respects state and federal areas of authority, while also establishing the state of Michigan as a “welcoming location to test, develop, and deploy this technology.”
European UAS users debate legislative framework
The use of unmanned aircraft systems in the commercial domain is now a given, as a host of industries see the benefits of operating an autonomous vehicle to support their businesses.
Some years ago, the debate surrounding this proliferation centered around whether UAS would in fact be disruptive enough to have an impact on these commercial operations, but now it is more a case of how their use will expand further and what the technology will be able to do next, and almost more importantly, what framework will be utilized to support this growth.
One roadblock to this is the expectation that the regulatory framework that supports an increase in the commercial use of UAS has to be perfect, and will not allow for any misuse of these types of aircraft.
