If the vehicle is not intended to operate in the airspace is a matter of putting proper mitigation to keep it off. And that is the importance of the Educational Campaign that we all agree on a peer. One element of the Educational Campaign is, we should consider testing were someone goes online, recent material, and takes a little test that satisfies the parents that the child knows how to operate the material operate the vehicle. Pick a different tune take a different airspace, do you accept what he said . That you dont you should be you should have commercial training or training as if aa pilot to fly and airspace that may have the ground levels . Ii think we take a little different approach to it. We consider all airspace shared airspace. There is always the
Utilize radiofrequency, thermal detection, video and Audio Technology to relocate the uas and its operator. Is the faa considering similar technologies as part of the efforts to mitigate the risk of a midair collision between uas . We just released of what deploys the technology and airports to see that technology is going into testing to detect jurors in the airport environment so with those Testing Programs you will see how to proceed from there . That as well as steel fencing to develop the approach in conjunction with other agencies that have a security issue as well. So those pilot programs can you give us a time line when they will be operational . There hasnt been an announcement of a time frame yet but that should be coming shortly. Mr. Whitaker technology suggests to me to require registration of the product individuals purchased and to share that information with an faa as a way to with a database with a violation.

And may not be aware of the safety considerations during the last Holiday Season there will be around with the communities and the approach will address that the campaign puts information in the hands of the newcomers including the air Line Pilots Association to the credit those companies that produce uas had implemented technologies that address some of the concerns.

Professor of aeronautics at stamford university. Deputy administer whitaker, you are recognized for your statemen statement. Chairman lobiondo, members of the subcommittee, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you to discuss could you pull your mic closer. To discuss Unmanned Aircraft. The popularity and variety of Unmanned Aircraft having increased dramatically. Many uses are becoming commonplace today including surveying agriculture and evaluating damage caused by natural disasters. Uas play an increasingly Important Role in Law Enforcement, firefighting and border protection. At the same time, the demand for recreational drones has exceeded anyones expectations. This demand is driven in large part by individuals who are completely new do the aviation experience. They are not necessarily the traditional model airplane operators, members of clubs who follow safety guidelines and rules. These entrants are unaware they are operating in shared airspace.
