      Scouts build, become FAA TRUST-certified, fly Drones (Great Rivers Council, MS)

      By RememberSchiff · Posted

      Great Rivers Council recently offered a class where attendees could get their Federal Aviation Administration drone certification by taking The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST), as well as build and keep their DIY drone. The event ended with participants challenging each other in races and aerial contests. Cost $75 More details including photos at source: https://www.columbiamissourian.com/news/local/scouts-learn-how-to-fly-with-diy-drones/article_45919aec-1e10-11ef-8722-b3648ec2e345.html

      National Annual Meeting NAM May 5-9, 2024 Orlanda

      By SiouxRanger · Posted

      Considering National has all manner of training available on line, the obvious gap are NAM presentations.  Which just happen to be the most current National policy and therefore the most important to disseminate widely. But Noooooo!     “Truth, is the most precious thing we have. Economise it.”  --Mark Twain

      Safeguarding Our Youth General Session presentation (46 min) with Glen Pounder whose job title Youth Protection Executive appears renamed and NEB member Frank Tsuru who also serves as Chair of the Youth Safeguarding Committee. IMHO, presentation gets interesting starting at 19:00 when Mr. Tsuru talks about transparency and policy. Mr. Pounder continues and expands on that discussion. Why NAM presentations can't be broadcast (live and archived) online to all of us remains a puzzle to me.  Better yet lets have a two-way dialog, maybe discuss pitfalls of perp profiling, the need for report tracking for both end-user and organizations...I am seeing some of the same failed solutions presented in a new tech suit. We have ideas and questions. My $0.02.
