How to Prevent Accidents
Accidents happen. That is a fact of life. But when accidents happen with drones, the consequences could be huge. That is why there is a day dedicated to Drone Safety Awareness! This year it is Saturday, June 18th
The Drone Industry
Drones are the fastest growing segment of aviation in the United States.
As of January 2022, over 860,000 drones have been registered with the FAA, and over 260,000 Remote Pilots have been certified by the FAA.
With all of these pilots flying all of these drones, safety HAS to be the number one priority.
