Aviation Groups’ Letter Supports Federal Approach to UAS Regulation
April 13, 2016
NBAA has joined with several aviation groups in signing a letter opposing two proposals that would eliminate federal oversight for the regulation of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS), and their integration into the National Airspace System. The proposals were offered as amendments to H.R.636, a Senate bill under consideration for reauthorizing programs and funding for the FAA. “It has long been established that the federal government, through the FAA, has sole authority to implement and enforce regulations for all navigable airspace, including regulations for UAS, and the Senate’s FAA bill reiterates this position,” said NBAA COO Steve Brown.
