12 Introduction UAS- Unmanned Aircraft System Unmanned aircraft (UA) Control system- ground Control Station (GCS) Control link, datalink and Other related support equipment

13 Introduction cont. Unmanned aircraft (UA) Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) Remotely piloted vehicle (RPV) Remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) Remotely operated aircraft (ROA)

14 Introduction cont. An unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), known as a drone, is an aircraft without a human pilot. Drone stands for Dynamic Remotely Operated Navigation Equipment Its flight is ether controlled autonomously by computer or under the remote control of a pilot on the ground.

15 Introduction cont. Crewmember: In addition to the crewmembers identified in 14 CFR Part 1, a UAS flight crew member includes pilots, visual observers (VO), but may also include other persons as required to ensure safe operation of the aircraft. National Airspace System (NAS): The common network of U.S. airspace air navigation facilities, equipment, and services; airports or landing areas; aeronautical charts, information and services; rules, regulations, and procedures; technical information; and manpower and material.

16 Introduction cont. NEXGEN or Next Generation Air Transportation System (2025): NextGen is a series of inter-linked programs, systems, and policies that implement advanced technologies and capabilities to dramatically change the way the current aviation system is operated. FAR or Federal Aviation Regulations, are rules prescribed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) governing all aviation activities in the United States. The FARs are part of Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (CFR)

17 AIDS Aviation Induced Divorce Syndrome

18 History The earliest attempt at powered unmanned aerial vehicle 1915 After World War-I first scale RPV Birth of U.S. UAVs began in 1950 s

19 History 1964 Navy initiated classified UAV combat missions over Vietnam War 1960 s Tom Cat Drone Remotely Piloted Vehicle (RPV) Target Drone 2000 s over Afghanistan 2010 s commercial use 2000 s M-9 Reaper

20 Uses of UAVs Counter terrorism activity: Border patrol Armed attacks Commercial aerial: Transportation Oil, gas & mineral exploration & production Scientific research

21 Beer Delivery

22 Uses of UAV s In search & rescue Reconnaissance

23 Advantages Does not contain, or need, a qualified pilot on board Can enter environments that are dangerous to human life Reduces the exposure risk of the aircraft operator Performing visual or thermal imaging Can be programmed to complete missions autonomously even when contact with its GCS is lost

24 Disadvantages Immoral Civilian casualties Angers many people Weather Refuel in flight If contact is lost with ground station, vehicle may be lost

25 The mission of the FAA is to provide the safest, most efficient aerospace system in the world.

27 Integration by Sept. 30, 2015 Public & Civilian National Airspace System Plans Standards Rules Operational Standards Emphasis on See and Avoid Pilot requirements

28 Recreational- purely for fun

29 Model Aircraft Operating Standard Advisory Circular Sufficient distance from populated areas Away from noise sensitive areas Not allowed to operate in the presence of spectators Until flight tested & proven airworthy No higher than 400 AGL Notify airport operator, ATC or FSS Within 3 mile of airport Give way, See & Avoid Forbids use for commercial purposes

30 Businesses flying for compensation

31 Special Airworthiness Certificate Special Airworthiness Certificate- Experimental Category Application process 180 days Period up to one year Certified pilots Airworthiness Continuing Airworthiness Program Maintenance Program Vehicles must be approved Can not operate- Circular (Model Aircraft Operating Standards) Densely populated areas Congested airways Near airports

32 Fire, Hazmat, Police, Boarder, FBI, etc.- flying for a mission

33 Public Entities Certificate of Waver or Authorization (COA) Public entities only Application process 90 days Good for one year Specific altitude limitations

34 Public Entities cont. Airworthiness Continuing Airworthiness Program Maintenance Training Program Any unique skill sets or maintenance practices Airborne or ground based observers

35 Public Entities cont. Flight Operations Comply with See and Avoid Onboard cameras/ Sensors Airborne or ground based observers Radar/ Other sensors UAV Pilot & Supplemental Pilots Second-class Medical Required Pilot Certificate

36 FAA Fined Team Blacksheep $10,000 in a careless or reckless manner over University of Virginia Minnesota craft brewer YouTube video delivering beer Amazon Prime Air 30-minute minidrone delivery service

37 Team Blacksheep NTSB Ruling March 6 th 2014 there was no enforceable FAA rule or FAR Regulation applicable to model aircraft or for classifying model aircraft as [unmanned aircraft systems].

38 Sky's open for UAV s

39

40 "We won't get to a point where there will be one day where suddenly everyone can operate anything, anytime" "But as we go through the certification and qualification process, there will be classes of these aircraft that we will be able to introduce."

41 Further Holds Model Aircraft Advisory Circular Civilian Airworthiness Certificate Standards Operational parameters Public Two categories of Drones Standards Operational parameters

42 Conclusion- part 1 Follow the Rules Operate your aircraft in responsible a manner Keep your aircraft below 400 feet Avoid flying over crowds Contact ATC, FSS or airport operator if, flying within 3 miles of an airport Don t use your aircraft for commercial activities Line of Slight flying- use spotters Look for new rules from the FAA 2015 or 2016
