Since 2013, Jennifer Richter, partner at Akin Gump, has been working with industry, NASA, the FAA, the FCC, ICAO and others on core questions that are facing GUTMA and its members–what are the suitable spectrum solutions for supporting essential UAS communications functions including UAS command/control links, remote identification and tracking of UAS, and connecting critical UAS information into a collaborative traffic management system. Jennifer is an active participant in NASA’s UTM working groups.

EANS is the ANSP of Estonia. Its main activity is provision of air navigation services in Tallinn Flight Information Region, covering the airspace over Estonian territory and some segments over the high seas that are delegated to Estonia by ICAO. EANS is also Coordinator of SESAR Finnish -Estonian VLD U-space project GOF U-space.

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA)‘s vision for fully integrating drones into the National Airspace System (NAS) entails drones operating harmoniously, side-by-side with manned aircraft, occupying the same airspace and using many of the same air traffic management systems and procedures. This vision goes beyond the accommodation practices in use today, which largely rely on operational segregation to maintain systemic safety.
We realize this vision requires collaboration across industry, government, and academia. You can read about some of the FAA’s major partnerships and initiatives through links on the FAA public website (https://www.faa.gov/uas/programs_partnerships/) with the following topic areas:- B4UFLY Mobile Application
– Drone Advisory Committee
– FAA UAS Data Exchange
– Manufacturer’s Toolkit
– UAS Integration Pilot Program
– UTM Pilot Program
– UAS Test Sites
– UAS Test Site Partnerships
– Recent UAS Initiatives

For the last four years, Kittyhawk has been building systems that enable drone adoption and drone flight across recreational and commercial use cases. Specifically related to UTM, we provide real-time UTM services for a company’s internal use case, while we’ve also been developing more public-facing UTM tools — such as we’ve demonstrated with Wing and AirMap with the InterUSS demonstrations.
Kittyhawk is an FAA approved USS for commercial and recreational LAANC, and we also work with the FAA to provide the airspace and application for B4UFLY.
