As more and more civilian drones are being flown freely, the threat to commercial airspace is increasing. Over the past two years, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has received countless reports of incidents related to these objects in the skies. As a result, the FAA is expanding its research into ways to detect these unmanned aircraft, in hopes that it will be able to provide more security for airports. In fact, the FAA borrowed an FBI drone detection system and field-tested it at the John F. Kennedy International Airport (JFK) last week. The FAA's press release details 40 trial runs involving the deployment of five different rotor and fixed-wing drones.
