For good or for bad? Releasing the stigma against drones and the pilots who fly them.

As the commercial drone industry continues to grow, drone technology has surpassed the expectations of many along the way. Today, unmanned aircraft system, UAS, technology is utilized by a vast multitude of sectors within our economy, Emergency Management, Insurance and Inspections, Professional Aerial Photography & Videography, Construction & Engineering, Security & Surveillance, Real Estate, Advertising, and much more. 

As a drone pilot, it is certain that you’ve been approached by bystanders and asked the same typical three questions,

1.) “How far can you fly that thing?”

2.) “How much is that one?”

3.) “Have you ever crashed?” 

After they ask these questions, there might be only a slight delay until they claim, “wow, must be really easy to spy on people.” 

As a professional drone pilot, I get deflated when that is the first thought that comes to their mind. Drones can be used to shift economies, save human lives, and improve the way we retrieve important data sets. It allows us perspective into a whole new world.
