Uber Elevate would like to deliver things in San Diego

Luke Fischer, Head of Flight Operations for Uber Technologies has asked the FAA if they can do what Wing can do.

Uber Elevate, Inc. seeks exemptions to allow it to conduct part 119 air carrier operations for compensation or hire under part 135 using small unmanned aircraft systems (small UAS). Specifically, Uber Elevate, Inc. seeks permission to conduct small UAS air carrier operations for commercial food package delivery in the United States, initially in the City of San Diego.
