UAS: Anybody Can Do ItSlide4

Wright Brothers, Jet Engine…

UAS?

Industry forecasts indicate potential worldwide market for commercial and military UAS at nearly $90 billion over next decade

2Slide5

Economic Impact Estimated at $82B with over 100,000 Jobs

Created

– AUVSI

UAS: Friend or Foe?

7Slide7

What is the FAA’s Authority?

U.S. airspace is public space

49 U.S.C. §40103(a)(1)UAS are aircraft subject to regulation

49 U.S.C. §40102(a)(6); 14 CFR 1.1; PL 112-95 §331, §336An aircraft is any device used, or intended to be used, for flightUAS must comply with FAA regulationsSlide8

Online UAS Registration

Applies to small UAS under 55 lbs. flown outside

Owner must provide name, address, emailNon-recreational owners must provide make, model, and serial number (if available) of each sUASSlide9

Who Operates Them?

Modeler

Recreational

Operators (

Modelers or hobbyists

) – Part 101

Operations below 400’/Remote Area/5 miles from airport

Not

for commercial operations (compensation or hire)

Civil

An entity

other than

public

– Part 107/SAC EC

No commercial operations (compensation or hire) unless stipulated in terms and

conditions of

exemption for SAC-EC

Public

intrinsically

governmental

in nature (i.e. federal, state, and local agencies) 49 U.S.C. 40125

Operator

must qualify

as public entity

Operation

must qualify as

government function

(public interest)

Examples: Department of Defense (

DoD

); other local, state, and federal government agencies and some universitiesSlide10

Types of UAS Operations

Definitions

Education or recreational

flying only

Flying for commercial use

Flyin

g incidental to a business

Flying non-profit operations

*These requirements are subject to waiver. Slide11

Model Aircraft Operations

Special Rule for Model Aircraft

(14 CFR Part 101)No FAA authorizationMust fly safely at all times:Community based safety guidelinesAvoid manned aircraftMaintain visual line-of-sightNotify airports / ATCTs w/i 5 smMust register & mark UAS before flying outdoorsSlide12

The Small UAS Rule (Part 107)

First rules for routine operation of small UAS (<55 pounds)

Took effect August 29, 2016Recreational operators may fly under Part 107 or Part 101Slide13

Part 107 Basics

Requires a Remote Pilot Certificate

Must pre-flight UASNo medical issues affecting safety<400’ AGL or within 400’ of a structure; other airspace requires a waiverUAS must weigh <55 lbs.UAS must be registeredSlide14

Operating Rules

Visual line-of-sight only

Daylight or civil twilight onlyNo operations over peopleMust yield right-of-way to manned aircraftOne UAS per operatorMax groundspeed of 100 mphExternal load permitted if load does not affect flight control and is secureSlide15

Waivable

Provisions of Part 107

Operation from a moving vehicle or aircraft (§ 107.25)Daylight operation (§ 107.29)Visual line of sight aircraft operation (§ 107.31)Visual observer (§ 107.33)Operation of multiple small UAS (§ 107.35)Yielding the right of way (§ 107.37(a))Operation over people (§ 107.39)Operation in certain airspace

(§ 107.41)Operating limitations for small UAS (§ 107.51)Online portal available at www.faa.gov/uas/request_waiver/Slide16

Becoming a Pilot under Part 107

16

years old or olderRead, write, speak EnglishMust pass an aeronautical knowledge exam at an FAA-approved Knowledge Testing CenterCurrent pilots can opt for online training course instead of the knowledge examNo medical issues impacting safetyTSA backgroundsecurity screeningSlide17

Slide21

Impact on Agriculture

UAS operations expected to be the future of agriculture

Safer, less costly operations

Greater precision/ability to see broad visual overview of crop conditions

Trimble submitted application for Section 333 exemption for geospatial mapping; approved December 2014

Yamaha approved by FAA for type certificate for RMAX unmanned helicopter

Currently used for chemical application in Japan and AustraliaSlide22

Agriculture Exemptions

Over 70 companies granted

Section 333 exemptions for agriculture: Trimble Navigation, Ltd.Advanced Aviation SolutionsPravia, LLCViafieldBOSH Precision Agriculture dba Digital Harvest

3D Aerial SolutionsFalconSkyCamQuiet Creek CorporationMany more….Slide23

Certificate

Mgmnt Team (CMT) w/RMax

First Part 137 certificate to a UAS in the NAS. 24Slide24

Myths about UAS

25

Unmanned aircraft are not aircraft and not regulated

Title 49 USC and Title 14 CFRFAA Doesn’t Control Flights below 400’

CFR 91.13: Ground/water/air prevention of collisions

Business purpose is okay over private

property and I

can use my model to fly

commercially

All commercial aircraft subject to CFR: certified pilot and a/c

The

US is lagging other countries in approving commercial “drones”

NAS largest in the world: FAA Cert vs assumption of liability

Harmonization ongoing with ROW

“Know Before You Fly” Outreach Campaign

Announced

December 22, 2014provides prospective UAS users with information and guidance to fly safely and responsiblyfounding members: AUVSI, Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA) and the Small UAV Coalitionpartnered with FAAother Supporters include:Consumer Electronics Association (CEA) – January 7, 2015Experimental Aircraft Association (

EAA) – January 9, 2015

FAA Working with Industry

on “Know Before You” Fly Campaign

FAA reached voluntary agreement with UAS manufacturers to include guidance materials in packagingmanufacturers who voluntarily committed include: DJI, Parrot and Yuneec Electrical AviationDJI has already begun including material in their Phantom 2 Quadcopter boxes

Reporting Unsafe UAS Activity

While flying or at the airport:

Report the sighting to Air Traffic ControlNote the location, altitude, and characteristics of the aircraftAnywhere else:Call local law enforcementThe FAA has published guidance for law enforcement to help them respond to unsafe UAS activityBe as detailed & specific as possibleLocation, altitude, direction, pictures, videos, etc.Slide30

UAS In the newsSlide31

Questions?Slide32

UAS in Lawmaking

Four states -

Florida, Idaho, Montana and Virginia have already passed laws to control the use of drones by law enforcement. FL, ID, an MT: Barred police from using drones without a warrant in most casesVirginia

has barred their use by law enforcement (with exceptions) for two years. According to a tally by the American Civil Liberties Union, legislation to limit drone use has been proposed in 41 states and remains active in 32 states.

Getting to IntegrationSlide34

What are UAS?

Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) historically were called by various terms:

drone/RPA/ROA/RPV/UAV

Model/R-CFAA defines UAS as a systemUnmanned Aircraft (UA)

Aircraft Control Station

Command & Control Link/s

Pilot

CommunicationSlide35

FAA Vision for UAS Integration

Safe,

Efficient

, and

Timely

integration of UAS into the

national airspace

Because

safety is the FAA’s primary

mission

SAFE

EFFICIENT

TIMELY

FAA is dedicated to supporting this exciting new technology

FAA is committed to reduce delays and increase system reliabilitySlide36
