2、ntee that autonomous aircraft can safely share airspace with all other flying objects:small drones,Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems(RPAS),and manned aviation.Safety is the foundation of the aviation system.The advent of digital aviation,digital traffic management,and new kinds of vehicles requires
3、a new framework to maintain,and even improve,safety and stakeholder trust.Given our increasingly digital aircraft and monitoring systems,any new safety regime must anticipate risks posed by digitally compromised aircraft.Aviation systems put safety and security first.Drones and other vehicles must m
