Summary: Dieffenbauch & Hritz, LLC, a company in the oil and gas industry, supports the FAA's progress in integrating UAS into the national airspace and urges the quick adoption of the proposed rules. However, they argue that the visual line-of-sight (VLOS) restrictions are too limiting for pipeline inspections and request a waiver process for flights outside of VLOS, as well as exceptions for operations over people and at night.
