UAS stakeholders discuss BVLOS policy at US White House

AgEagle Aerial Systems Inc reports that the company recently attended the US White House by invitation to engage in strategic discussions regarding the future of commercial uncrewed aerial systems (UAS).

In a press release, the company says the meeting assembled key stakeholders from the UAS industry along with government officials from the National Security Council and National Economic Council to explore a variety of issues including supply chain security, manufacturing, and policies related to beyond visual line of sight operations (BVLOS) in US airspace.

AgEagle CEO Bill Irby says the meeting was an important step toward fostering collaboration between the private sector and government. “We look forward to future opportunities to strengthen our support for safety and compliance measures as the use of UAS to provide precise real-time intelligence continues to grow in both the government and commercial markets.”
