November
20 - The new Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Integration Pilot Program
fosters innovation and advances the integration of UAS into our nation’s
airspace to ensure U.S. global leadership in the emerging UAS industry. It’s
taking collaboration to a new level!
There’s
already been tremendous interest in the Program and more than 4300 people registered
to attend our online webinars to learn how they can participate. It’s
facilitating partnerships between state, local, and tribal government
entities and private industry to gather operational and other data from
advanced operational concepts, such as flights over people and package
delivery.
Based on demand, we’ve added two more
webinars. Each webinar will provide you with an overview of the Program,
application process, and the specific criteria and deadlines that you will be
required to meet. Registration is required and please register for only
one session as they cover the same content.
Tuesday, November 21,12:00 p.m. – 1:15
p.m. EST
Monday, November 27, 12:00 p.m. – 1:15
p.m. EST

The results from the Program
will help to inform the development of future enabling regulations that will
expand safe UAS operations and help to transition many of the new and novel
operational concepts that we manage today by exception into routine, commonplace
aspects of our everyday lives.
Details about applying, timelines, and
requirements are at FAA.gov/Go/DronePilot. You
may also subscribe to receive email updates from the FAA’s UAS
webpage.
Thank you for your interest in the UAS
Drone Integration Pilot Program.
