Chapter Meeting

Topic: Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (Drone) Regulations

As of August 2016, the FAA part 107 changed the rules for any one or any company that uses drones less than 55 lbs. They now must pass a very difficult exam. The test is offered by the FAA for small unmanned aerial vehicle pilots. The exam is all about safety! Attend this session and here about test insights. Hal and Darrell will also talk about commercial applications and trends, plus legal and privacy issues. For example, Can I shoot them down if they hover over my backyard?
