Snippet: Jan-Christophe Oetjen, Vice President of the European Parliament , Proposes a Game-Changing Approach to Airspace Safety

from Technologist of the Month · host Technologist of the Month

Jan-Christophe Oetjen, Vice President of the European Parliament, proposes a game-changing approach to airspace safety: mutual visibility. While drones are required to be detectable by aircraft, he argues it should work both ways. Aircraft should share their data with drone operators, creating a two-way transparency system. It's not about visual sight - it's about data sharing that lets drone pilots know what else is in their airspace. Oetjen frames this as a fairness issue: if drones must announce their presence, traditional aircraft should do the same. This reciprocal visibility could be the key to safer, more integrated airspace management as drone usage continues to explode.Watch the full episode here 👉  https://bit.ly/4fno3mM
