FAA Opinions on Drone Regulations
There are a lot of drone regulations, and because they are constantly changing to keep up with the development of the drone industry, they can be difficult to understand. Drone Lawyer Jonathan Rupprecht has a
database of FAA letters of interpretation on various drone regulations. While they are not the law, they give some insight into how the FAA interprets regulations. Check it out, https://jrupprechtlaw.com/faa-drone-legal-opinions-database/
Another Drone Light Show Record Set in China
It seems every few months there is a new Guinness World Record for a drone light show in China. This time Korean luxury vehicle brand Genesis put on a drone light show in the skies above Shanghai with 3,281 drones, breaking the record for the most unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) airborne simultaneously. The show was part of the Genesis brand night and showed off the car-makers logo and representations of some of their car models. The question is, how long will this record last?
