Home » Know Before You Fly Gains First State Supporter
The state of Alaska is the newest supporter of the Know Before You Fly campaign, an initiative to promote the safe and responsible use of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS).
“Alaska is known for its vast land mass and few roads. Many of our communities are not on the road system and are only primarily accessible by air. Given these factors, it is quite realistic to assume that UAS will have a significant impact on Alaska, on our lives and our well-being,” Alaska Governor Bill Walker wrote in a letter to the Academy of Model Aeronautics (AMA). “As Alaska has a great history and appreciation of aviation, it is appropriate that it be the first state to offer support to the vital Know Before You Fly campaign.”
