Second Annual National Drone Safety Awareness Week, Nov. 16 To 22

The FAA will hold its second annual National Drone Safety Awareness Week, Nov. 16 to 22, 2020. The FAA is committed to ensuring the safety of the National Airspace System as we continue to integrate drones and other new technologies. Drone Safety Awareness Week is an opportunity for others to share their commitment to drone safety.

Everyone is welcome to participate in this week long campaign. Due to the COVID-19 public health emergency, the 2020 campaign is fully virtual. During the second annual National Drone Safety Awareness Week, current and future drone pilots, as well as the general public, will learn the latest about safe and innovative drone operations.

During this virtual campaign, the FAA and stakeholders will highlight important drone safety educational topics. 

• Monday: LEARN – What do you need to know before you fly?
• Tuesday: IMPROVE – How can you improve your flying skills?
• Wednesday: PASSION TO PROFESSION – How to go from recreational flyer to commercial drone pilot.
• Thursday: START A PROGRAM – Learn about starting a public safety program.
• Friday: IN THE CLASSROOM – How can you use drones in STEM education?
• Saturday and Sunday: HAVING FUN – Why do you fly?

The FAA ecourages the use of the hashtag, #DroneWeek, to share your safety story.
