DroneRise – FAA authority over National Airspace, Nkuhuma Pride of lions and more…

Good morning, here are the headlines you may have missed. We have news from the FAA, reinforcing their authority over the national airspace in a statement. However, State and Local authorities can still determine take-off and landing areas for drones. And thermal drone footage from National Geographic that shows the Nkuhuma Pride of lions hunting at night in Kruger National Park in South Africa. Lastly, we have news on increased drone use along the U.S. / Mexico border.
