Why it's in the directory
FAA Unmanned Aircraft Systems sits in United States — FAA Drone Rules — Registration, pilot certification, operating rules, Remote ID and controlled-airspace authorization in the United States. It earns a place here because it is a primary, actively maintained source rather than a rehost of someone else's data, and because it stays useful whether you are an enthusiast, a student or working the line.
