I hope you’re right Ren .. that would be amazing if it happened sooner than later

From what I’ve read though .. only small / light weight UAV’s will be allowed .. to start

“The 2012 reauthorization bill also directed the FAA to “allow a government public safety agency to operate unmanned aircraft weighing 4.4 pounds or less” under certain restrictions. The bill specified these UAS must be flown within the line of sight of the operator, less than 400 feet above the ground, during daylight conditions, inside Class G (uncontrolled) airspace and more than five miles from any airport or other location with aviation activities.

Prior to the congressional action, the FAA and the Justice Department had been working on an agreement to streamline the COA process for law enforcement – an agreement that also meets the mandate. Initially, law enforcement organizations will receive a COA for training and performance evaluation. When the organization has shown proficiency in flying its UAS, it will receive an operational COA. The agreement expands the allowable UAS weight up to 25 pounds.”

You’re a Lawyer? Could we suggest that when the lifting gas is in place we meet their weight qualifications?

Well, with the BiB platform in place .. if a tethered system is the best we can do till the Argus is approved for regulated or unregulated airspace .. we have the bases covered
