The drone industry stands on the verge of significant growth, but bureaucratic delays threaten to stall its progress.
A draft rule for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations, currently under review by the White House Office of Management and Budget (OMB), could unlock the scalability of critical drone applications when passed.
Industry leaders stress the urgency of publishing the rule before potential political shifts in early 2025.
Timely action on BVLOS rulemaking is critical for the drone industry to achieve its projected economic contributions.
