1 Safe UAS Integration Challenges Views and Concerns from the Airline Cockpit Presentation by the Air Line Pilots Association, International

2 AGENDA Introduction/Bio UAS/RPAS Background/Discussion ALPA s UAS Involvement Safety Concerns Way Forward Wrap up/questions

4 Introduction Chris Lucius - ALPA Air Safety Organization Largest Pilot union and largest NGO ASO Airline pilot for 21 years and ALPA Safety representative for 2 years. UAS and Hobbyist pilot for over 30 years. Manned aviation for over 30 years. B.S. Degree San Jose State University J.D. Concord School of Law.

5 UAS/RPAS Background/Discussion Drones: What s in a name? News media likes the term drone FAA uses Unmanned Aircraft System ICAO further defines it into 2 broad types: Autonomous No human intervention is possible in flight Regulatory Parking Lot Remotely Piloted Aircraft System Require a pilot to manage flight Can be and usually is highly automated.

6 UAS/RPAS Background/Discussion UAS uses multiple aircraft design with many different types of propulsion. Further divided by size and by the operating area Small refers to under 55 pounds/25 kgs Line of Sight or Beyond Visual Line of Sight UAS utilize many different control stations or cockpits Flown by pilots that have widely varied levels of training, experience and qualifications.

8 ALPA s UAS Involvement Fully supports the safe integration of UAS in non segregated airspace. ALPA involved in all aspects of UAS: Access 5 in the 1990s Small UAS ARC that led to FAR 107 RTCA SC-203/228/147; DAA, C2, ACAS Xu. Registration and Micro ARCs Member of the Drone Advisory Committee and Unmanned Aircraft Safety Team.

9 Safety Concerns UAS is one of ALPA s top priorities Collision Risk is high because of the explosive growth FAA estimates 7 million annual drone sales in the USA More drones registered in US in first 3 months of registration that manned aircraft in last 100 years. 583 reported hazards/encounters in four month period Hobbyist drones flown by pilots with very little aviation common sense. Drones have the capability to operate at high altitudes Reports of airliners missing them as high as 5,000 feet

10 Capabilities of suas

11 Safety Concerns Industry is pushing hard to open up airspace for BVLOS Operations. New applications and missions are being developed. Google, Amazon, UPS, and DHL all have packagedelivery drone testing a low altitude delivery system. New technology must be prove that it can be used safety with the existing aviation system. Complete safety analysis. Crawl, walk, then run This is a major challenge for UAS/RPAS

12 Way Forward Education: Manufacturers/FAA to develop an educational awareness program of the risks associated with drone flight Know before you fly Properly trained for large/commercial UAS National Registration Database Technology: to prevent collision Operate in same airspace then pilots/atc must be able to see the UAS Impact testing of drones with aircraft engines Enforcement

13 Example

14 Wrap up Fully supports the safe integration of UAS in non segregated airspace. ALPA will continue to be involved in all aspects of regulating UAS operations and pilot training UAS is one of ALPA s top priorities Collision Risk is high because of the explosive growth Education and technology to mitigate risks Introduce new technology using safety analysis Crawl, walk then run A Well Trained Pilot is The Greatest SAFETY Tool in the Air
