Commercial use of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) are now being allowed but the rules are pretty stringent. What I thought was interesting:
1. They call the operators – pilots.
2. A pilot must be 16
3. A pilot must have a remote pilot certificate – or be supervised by someone with a remote pilot certificate
4. TSA will conduct a security background check of all remote pilot applications prior to a certificate being issued.
5. The unarmed aerial vehicle must weight less than 55 pounds.
6. The pilot must have the drone in their line of site at all times.
