FAA renames Drone Advisory Committee as scope widens to AAM
Drone Advisory Committee (DAC) is now the Advanced Aviation Advisory Committee (AAAC)
The Advanced Aviation Advisory Committee (AAAC) is a broad-based federal advisory committee that provides independent advice and recommendations to the FAA on key unmanned aircraft system (UAS) and advanced air mobility (AAM) integration issues, interests and policies. The AAAC‘s work relates to the efficiency and safety of integrating advance aviation technologies into the National Airspace System.
The charter amendment modified the FAA‘s Drone Advisory Committee, renaming the committee and expanding membership from 35 to 41 members. The vacancies expand representation in current stakeholder groups to include members with an AAM background. Additionally, there is a new stakeholder group that includes a community advocate representative to provide insight and expertise on potential impacts of increased drone traffic on communities.
