At the
direction of the Secretary, the FAA announced the formation of a task force to
develop a process for owners of small Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) to
register their aircraft. This group of experts embraced the challenge with the
energy and creativity we expected and delivered its report to me today as
scheduled. We thank them for their excellent and expeditious work.
I will work with my team at the FAA to review their recommendations, as
well as public comments we received, as we present the recommendations to
Secretary Foxx. We will work quickly and flexibly to move toward the next
steps for registration.
