FAA Plans New App for Unmanned Aircraft
B4UFLY is a simple, easy-to-use smartphone
app that users will be able to access before they
operate their unmanned aircraft to determine
whether there are any restrictions or requirements
in effect at the location where they want to fly. The
FAA announced the app at the 2015 Association for
Unmanned Vehicle Systems International (AUVSI)
Unmanned Systems Conference in Atlanta. The
agency plans to release the app to approximately
1,000 beta testers this summer. The beta test is
expected to run for several months, after which the
FAA plans to make B4UFLY available for the general
public. The initial release is planned for iOS devices
only, with an Android version to follow.
B4UFLY complements the “Know Before You
Fly” educational campaign, which provides prospec
-
tive UAS operators with information and guidance
they need to fly safely and responsibly online at
Home | Know Before You Fly
. The FAA is a partner in
the effort with the AUVSI, Academy of Model Aero
-
nautics (AMA), and the Small UAV Coalition.
