BVLOS, Part 108, and the Future of Drone Operations

The FAA has released its Notice of Proposed Rulemaking for Part 108, and it could change everything about Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) drone operations. On this episode of The Flight Path, Christian sits down with the crew—Steve Ross, Don Heon, and James McDanolds—to break down what this new rule means, why it matters, and how it could impact the future of drones in industries like delivery, agriculture, inspection, and more.

We cover:

How drone rules evolved from Section 333 to Part 107

Why BVLOS operations have been limited until now

What’s inside the Part 108 NPRM (Notice of Proposed Rulemaking)

New roles like flight coordinators and operations supervisors

The opportunities (and challenges) this creates for SDI students and the drone industry at large

This is the biggest proposed update since Part 107—and it’s not set in stone yet. The FAA is taking comments until October 7, 2025. If you’re looking to get into the drone industry, now is the time to pay attention.
