If you are curious about drones, come this year to the Festival of Flight

There will be a 30 x 40 tent with 10 organizations and manufacturers including NASA Langley showing and explaining "drones", or as they are more properly called, UAS, Unmanned Aerial Systems, Lots of other aviation-related things too. Lots of things that fly.

Commercial drones at the Festival of Flight

Just to be clear, the drones you will see at the Virginia Festival of Flight will be commercial drones, not military drones. Police, farmers, surveyors, photographers and many more categories of users and eager to utilize drones once the FAA comes up with a new set of rules for them to fly by.
