  • "Drones, remote ID, and the integration of drones into the national airspace", by Prof. Jay Seidel

    Drones, remote identification, and the coming integration of drones in the national airspace system. Drones are used in a variety of industries and package delivery will be starting soon.  This means more drones in the air and more opportunities for drone pilots. So, how are these drones looking to integrate into the national airspace safely with manned aircraft? What are the regulations and what will be happening with drones in the future?

    Jay Seidel is professor and director of the Fullerton Drone Lab at Fullerton College. He is a Part 107 certified UAS Pilot and has been flying drones since 2016. He is an AUVSI TOP (Level 3) UAV Instructor, a Skydio Certified Instructor, and helped the Fullerton Drone Lab become and ASTM Certified Training Center. Jay is a representative of the FAA’s Safety Team where he is the Drone Pro for Orange and Los Angeles counties working from the Long Beach Flight Standards District Office (FSDO). He regularly speaks across Southern California communities about drone safety and drone education.
