Aero-News Quote of the Day

“We’ve seen an expanding implementation of drone technology in the past year, from locating humans lost under cluttered forest canopies, to dropping critical medications in Africa, Oceania and Latin America, to enabling students to program unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and fly autonomous missions. These innovators prove that drone innovation is driven not just by the technology itself, but by its users. We are thrilled to see drones embraced widely across more industries, and we hope the award will inspire more drone operators around the world to accomplish great feats in their own communities.”
