[Federal bill] S. 1249: Drone Integration and Zoning Act (Proposed)

[mavic3usa]

Have we done this one yet? Seen it posted in several places on the internet but not surprised. Drones are constantly under attack not only from the federal, state, and local governments but also from the citizens and even within the drone and rc community. It's just a matter of time before the legal activity reaches an unrelenting pitch and something is going to sneak thru. I wish we could do more to fight back and it's not too late but at some point, we gotta take off the hat and put on the helmet. Low chance of passing but sooner or later, the pace is going to pick up.

"S.1249 requires the FAA to update its definition of “navigable airspace” and limits the agency’s authority below 200 feet...."

I was sent this yesterday.I'm keeping a close eye on it via Gov Track. If Lee gets traction on this, DAA will put out a campaign as well. I did not know Miriam had written an article though.

Stay tuned.
