		<description><![CDATA[Some background on the FAA/DOT documents: these attached documents are a series of memorandum involving an unmanned aircraft manufacturer/operator seeking to establish procedures for flying both Radio Controlled Blimps and fixed wing aircraft in Class B Airspace. (The documents are color coded in the upper right corners) The second attachment dated August 20, 2001 Subject: Action: Request for Ruling/Interpretation/Establishment of Procedures For Radio Controlled Blimps in Class B Airspace (Green) The requested or intended uses are; “advertising, aerial photography, etc”. And the following description… “These Vehicles are very unusual:” Blimp Specifications: Length – 22 feet”, “maximum height 500 to 1000’ AGL”, “Range From Pilot – 2 miles.” “Additionally, Galaxy RPV has a 14’ fixed wing aircraft that they will be using too.” So at this point, you’re probably mumbling to yourself that this dude is dreaming, even with his safety features. I mean we’re talking commercial operations in Class Bravo Airspace at a 1000’ out to two miles, and then taking it up a notch to a complete fantasy, a 14’ fixed wing aircraft. There is just no way this is ever going to happen, right? Well, let us continue to examine the rest of the documents in the series. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Get ready for two months of careful flying if you are within quite and area of  South East England for the 2012 Olympics. Very impressed that sUAS along with model aircraft form the first group mentioned in the recommendations for the restricted area. We have arrived as a known group! Flight in the prohibited area will be, well prohibited! sUAS cannot meet the requirements. In the words of the London Airspace 2012 website http://olympics.airspacesafety.com Airspace restrictions will be placed around all Games venues. The major restriction will be centred on London and the Olympic Stadium. These will run from 13 July 2012 to 12 September 2012 and will be implemented by the Government through its commitment to deliver a safe and secure Games. Airspace restrictions around other Games venues will only be in place for the duration of the event at each venue, in line with those used for major sporting events. Extra security restrictions may be placed on flights at any time. Prohibited Zone: Aircraft will not be allowed within the Prohibited Zone unless they are IFR traffic and have undergone crew, passengers and baggage screening in accordance with the relevant aviation security programme, and inbound to or outbound from Heathrow, [...]]]></description>
