DMLA Info+ Webinar: All About Drones
Gain a uniquely informed perspective on drones in a DMLA Info+ Webinar featuring Ret. Brig. Gen. John Allen, founder of Allen & Associates Consulting; former VP, Safety at JetBlue Airlines; former FAA Director, Flight Standards Service; plus a past member of the committee that reviewed drone safety and developed today’s drone regulations.
Mr. Allen will discuss how and why the regulations were developed and best practices for safely operating drones. The webinar also will cover current laws as well as what individual photographers, videographers and agencies need to know to safely and legally fly drones to capture excellent content.
Details: 1 pm May 7. Free for DMLA members; $59.99 for non-members.

Info+ Webinars are free as a perk of membership in DMLA.

Please do not share the video outside your member company.
