some of the customers are using UAV's ( still in testing ) for things like well looking for Hot Spots on power lines. some others are looking in to agricultural applications. some of the others i can't really post what applications they are using them for. have sign NDA non-disclosure agreement in place with them so i can really go in to much detail about it.. most of them I have ( or going threw ) the process of getting COA for the UAV. only other way is to set it up as A special airworthiness certificate in the experimental category.. Its all still a Big Mess when it comes to doing anything with a civilian UAV.. but hope one day there will be a Clear Rule to go by.. there is a Large area for growth in Civilian UAV market.. ..
