One Comment on “National Drone Safety Awareness Week”
We have also established a drone safety week etc and would like change it to fall in line with the FAA. We are DroneTeamChallenge.com and would like to partner with the FAA since we already have a large education outreach in the U.S. community. Our competition has 5 missions including Knowledge and we teach grades 3-12 the FAA rules of the Sky. We have a 330K grant for the competition from the Airforce Research Lab that includes teaching FAA rules of the Sky(Drone Safety) to young minds! We have also have your DOT team coming(for different purposes) to visit in February and we would love to invite an FAA official and partner to help keep our young minds at pace with the rapidly developing Drone Industry. Also, See Hsu Foundation and contact Sean Mcsheehy.
