After Pirker Setback, FAA Plans UAS Policy Notice
Agency seeks to reaffirm its authority to regulate the use of small unmanned aircraft.

Having lost the first round of its attempt to fine Raphael Pirker for using a flying wing to take video, the FAA plans to issue a public notice reaffirming its authority to regulate the use of small unmanned aircraft. The agency is appealing a March ruling by a National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) administrative law judge rejecting the $10,000 fine.
