Airborne-UnCrewed 06.07.22: Irish UAV Bust, SpaceX v FAA, Ukraine Drones

The Irish Aviation Authority (IAA) successfully prosecuted an independent filmmaker for flying a drone over a crowd of demonstrators in Dublin.

The May 2021 incident saw the drone detained and its operator informed by the IAA that he’d violated its 1993 Act for “operating a drone over an assembly of people.” The agency alleged the operator did not appreciate the safety risks posed to the crowd gathered underneath a flying drone. The IAA further stated that bystanders below an airborne drone cannot safely move away if the drone malfunctions and falls, or is operated erratically. Getting to space is difficult. The technical, gravitational, atmospheric, aerodynamic, and fiscal challenges are immense—and then there’s the red-tape… The FAA has delayed the release of its final, Programmatic Environmental Assessment of SpaceX's Starship development program a few more weeks. The move—which the FAA attributes to ongoing interagency consultation—will see the originally scheduled release date of 31 May pushed back to 13 June. The Biden Administration is making ready to sell four MQ-1C Gray Eagle drones to Ukraine. The move would supplement Ukraine’s existing drone fleet, which comprises primarily Turkish, Bayraktar-TB2 units. The MQ-1C Gray Eagle drones, which can remain aloft for over thirty-hours, are capable of carrying up to eight Hellfire missiles. All this -- and MORE in today's episode of Airborne-Unmanned!!!
