A Bit About Me 30 YEARS LEADING INSURANCE TECHNOLOGY COMPANIES
Current State of Drone / UAS Utilization • 760,000+ hobbyists have registered more than 1.6 million drones since Dec. 21st, 2015 • The FAA estimates that hobbyists will buy 2.3 million drones in 2017 and 13 million by the end of 2020
Current State of Drone / UAS Utilization • Since April 2016, more than 44,000 commercial sUAS licenses have been registered with the FAA (an average of 1,000 new commercial drone licenses per week) • FAA forecasts that the U.S. commercial drone fleet will grow 10X by 2021 - with a forecast of 420,000 commercial UAS registered by that year. • About 7,000 pilot planes fly in U.S. airspace on any given day and the FAA has a total of 320,000 piloted aircraft registered in its database

Evolution of Drone Regulation
PRE-2012 JAN 2012 AUG 2016 2017+
Effective Moratorium on Section 333 of the FMRA Small UAS Rule (Part 107) Amendments to Part 107
Commercial Drone Flights of 2012 Goes Into Effect Goes Into Effect / New Regulation
PRE-333 EXEMPTIONS PART 333 EXEMPTIONS PART 107 FUTURE OUTLOOK
EFFECTIVELY NO COMMERCIAL UAS UAS FLIGHTS 700K+ UASes
COMMERCIAL UAS POSSIBLE—BUT FEASIBLE AND REGISTERED WITH
FLIGHTS CUMBERSOME INDIVIDUAL UAS FAA
LICENSES ISSUED
What’s Allowed With Part 107
Ability to fly drones commercially
Can fly in daylight or twilight hours
Must maintain VLOS at all times
Fly, with approval, in all airspaces
2 Year license to operate commercially
What’s Prohibited With Part 107
Beyond visual line of sight (VLOS)
Night operations
Operations over crowds
UAS + payload cannot exceed 55lbs
Cannot operate from a moving vehicle
Operations Over Crowds Easing
FAA evaluating practical risk of drones
operating above people
Currently, CNN is the only organization with
an exemption
Initial studies suggest the risk is much
lower than initially though
FAA’s Notice of Proposed Rule Making
regarding operations expected soonBeyond VLOS
Still one of the most technologically
complex challenges to solve
Large players like Amazon are pushing both
the technology and the regulation
While everyday delivery is top of mind—
delivery of medical supplies is often the
most compelling use caseProximity To Airports
No operations within 5 miles of an airport
FAA approval required
Previously, there was an online request
process that took up to 90-days to get
approved
For Class D airspace, towers are now
providing approvals directlyUTMS Explained
Where Regulation Is Going
Routine operations close to airports &
controlled airspace
BVLOS and Night Operations becoming
common
UTM-Based Traffic Management will
automate complex airspace
