Episode 27 - Richard Hanson

Richard Hanson, who works on the AMA's Regulatory and Governmental Affairs operations. The regulatory process to introduce UAVs in the National Airspace (NAS) is a long, tortured and potentially disastrous ordeal for us. If it goes well, we'll be given guidelines or laws under which to operate, which create a category for small amateur UAVs that allows us to operate safely and still do interesting work. If it doesn't go well, we could be banned entirely. http://www.ama-dist-8.org/Forum/viewtopic.php?f=4&p=414&sid=557ee006e7b24adccaf0279ad2232013 A couple blog posts discussed: http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/open-source-hardware-draft http://diydrones.com/profiles/blogs/x-plane-integration
