RE: FAA Policy for UAS Operations
JugFlier,
Funny you should mention insurance in this. Yes, the commercial ventures will no doubt require insurance. Any ideas which way the rates might go? No doubt driven by perceived risk until some good statistics can come into play. Plus a little greed on the side of the insurance companies. But I think more importantly, due to the "similarities" with the hobby, what this might do to AMA insurance, the AMA, membership dues and even the hobby in general?
Especially considering any idiot can strap a camera to a model, chuck it into the air and whack something or someone with it. Then claim he's just combining his two hobbies of R/C models and photography! Would AMA insurance pay? This certainly opens a whole new realm of possibilities!
