Washington D.C. - According to Babette Boliek, "Drones are hot. The possibility of a drone-filled future fires the imagination. Packages, papers and even groceries might be (and in some areas, are currently) delivered by drones. Farmers already use drones to survey their crops, spray fertilizer and pesticides, and efficiently allocate other scarce resources.

In order for these potential benefits to materialize, however, innovators and entrepreneurs need space. Unfortunately, when it comes to drones (and so many other new technologies), regulators seem reluctant to provide the needed leeway."
