With the FAA still stuck in the mud of its own bureaucracy trying to develop UAV regulations, and sans a cohesive application of policy, we now have… ‘Unauthorized photography’…being charged as a way to stop a UAV operator.
A newspaper wanting to get photographs of solar panels atop the roof of a Veterans Administration hospital in Louisiana figured using a UAV would be the perfect way to get the job done. The Helicopter Association International and six other aviation associations sent a strongly worded letter to the chairman and ranking member of the House Committee of Veterans Affairs, urging their committee to reject a bill that would impose a detrimentally low cap on Veterans Administration funding for college flight training degree programs for veterans. It’s been reported that the global fleet of over 1,300 Pilatus PC-12 aircraft have reached a major milestone by compiling five million flight hours since the first aircraft was delivered in October, 1994. All this... and MORE in today's episode of Airborne!!!
