Unlocking the Future of Drone Operations: Deep Dive on the FAA’s Proposed BVLOS Rulemaking
The BVLOS Rulemaking: Performance-Based Drone Operations in U.S. Airspace is an essential white paper analyzing transformative Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) proposals for Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) operations in U.S. airspace. This comprehensive resource breaks down the new performance-based regulations outlined in the FAA and TSA’s joint Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM), designed to bring safe, routine, and scalable drone flights—including commercial and recreational operations—below 400ft AGL into the national framework.
Key highlights include:
- Detailed summary of proposed permitting for package delivery, agriculture, surveying, civic interest, and recreational BVLOS drone missions.
- Clear explanations of new operational safety protocols, risk assessment with LandScan USA data, and required participations in advanced UAS Traffic Management (UTM) systems.
- In-depth guidance on regulatory compliance for third-party vendors, maintenance accountability, ongoing staff training, and agricultural safety certifications.
- Exclusive analysis on shielded and strategic deconfliction operations, Remote ID performance mandates, and integration of advanced service levels under Part 108.
Tailored for aviation professionals, drone operators, and industry stakeholders, this white paper distills the FAA’s 700+ page NPRM into actionable insights, tables, and compliance checklists. Stay ahead of regulatory developments and discover how BVLOS rulemaking will shape the future of drone operations, enterprise scaling, and national airspace integration.
