    How should the FAA balance uniform national drone regulations with state and local governments' ability to restrict operations in their communities?

  2. 02

    What safeguards would protect property owners' privacy and safety while allowing drone operators reasonable access to airspace for commercial and recreational use?

  3. 03

    Does creating a 200-foot local control threshold adequately address concerns about drone operations, or should the split between federal and local authority be different?
