FAA Selects 6 Testing Sites for Drone Research

Drone2

The Federal Aviation Administration took a step toward integrating drones into U.S. airspace by selecting six locations around the country for research.

The agency announced its selections on Monday after a 10-month selection period, during which it considered 25 applicants from 24 states. Four of the six testing sites will be at specified locations — the University of Alaska, Texas A&M University at Corpus Christi, Virginia Tech and Griffiss International Airport in Rome, N.Y. The remaining two accepted proposals came from the State of Nevada and the North Dakota Chamber of Commerce.
