Boeing Urges Drone Rulemaking

Boeing representatives spoke with an aide to Commissioner Brendan Carr on the company’s push for an NPRM on service rules enabling use of the 5030-5091 MHz band for unmanned aircraft systems, “The lack of access to licensed spectrum for UAS command and control is not merely a hypothetical problem that will be felt once UAS technologies are deployed at scale, but a real, ongoing problem that is impacting the industry’s ability to develop these systems today,” Boeing said in a filing posted Wednesday in RM-11798.
