Episode 55: Walmart & Zipline deal, NDakota’s BVLOS Network, a Legal Perspective with Mark McKinnon

This week on the InterDrone Podcast we sat down with Mark McKinnon, Partner at Fox Rothschild LLP. Mark has nearly three decades of experience in aviation and transportation law. He is particularly well versed in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) law, assisting clients in their efforts to obtain approval for complex commercial UAS operations, including beyond visual line of sight and autonomous flight. We discussed Amazon and Walmart’s emerging delivery drone battle escalates with Zipline deal, an Ontario man who was cited 13 times for flying drones over private property, and North Dakota's Statewide BVLOS Network for Drones.
