Drone Journalists Invited to FAA Listening Session


The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) is hosting a virtual public listening session on June 22 from 5:30 – 7:30 pm EDT to receive comments on the Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) recommendations report. The Committee was formed to provide the FAA with recommendations for performance-based regulatory requirements to normalize operations that occur outside of positive air traffic control. This is an opportunity to voice perspective when it comes to addressing some of the complex challenges within our nation’s airspace. If you are interested in attending the listening session, please review the Notice, which provides guidance on how to participate. The agency is also accepting written comments until June 29, 2022, via email. The News Media Alliance will continue to monitor and provide updates on this issue.
