Sounds good. Let me know if I can help.

... also, keep that propeller!!!!

I've been receiving updates of the NOTAM changes, but haven't taken the time to dive into it. I'm hearing Q1 of 2026, but nothing definite has been officially released. We are starting to see some changes at the NOTAM pages. I'm not sure when the NOTAM system will go completely digital or...

You did all the right things, although not necessarily in the right order. But that's not really an issue. Let me know if you need help with the LEOs. At this point, the LEO should reach out to the FAA's LEAP (Law Enforcement Assistance Program) Agent. But if you talked to the FAA (was it...

The SafeAir from ParaZero is ASTM compliant. But they stopped production. Once stock is gone, that's it.

The Manti does is not ASTM compliant, and ParaZero discontinued their PRS. Unfortunately there are now no longer any PRS available for the Mavic 3 Pro.

As someone who works closely with DJI folks here in the U.S., I can promise you they have not left the US market "unprotected and in disarray". They are working very hard to get CBP to cease stopping shipments. DJI has answered every question and concern CBP has raised, and all they get back is...

So much wrong with this bill. Michigan drone owners need to organize and fight this.

The only time you're not allowed to fly from National Forest Lands is when they are "Designated Wilderness Areas". There are also times when TFRs are in place, or an area may be close due to nesting seasons. Other than that, it's legal. Just because something is "Federal", doesn't mean it's...

Sorry, I've been swamped lately. There are still some background discussions taking place. Nothing concrete has been accomplished. There is still time, but at this point, it's more likely we can get an extension than an actual audit. But an audit still isn't out of the question. I do have a...

Comment, please. We've seen many changes to final rules from NPRMs in the past. Both for Part 107, as well as OOP and RID. We saw a number of changes in those directly from the comments.
