Example 3:
You can use a drone to move a box from point to point without any kind of compensation, but you cannot use a drone to deliver packages to people for a fee. Amazon.com is obviously the main issue here, as Amazon would like to use drones to deliver packages to people. Here is a new angle, I’m a member of Amazon Prime, so I get my packages delivered for free. If Amazon delivers my packages for free, with a drone, is it commercial? I would argue it is not, as I would not be charged whether it arrives by UPS or drone, and I would much prefer drone as it would get here in 10 minutes rather than 2 days.
Example 4:
You can use a drone to survey a field of crops “grown for personal enjoyment”, but not as part of a commercial farming operation. This is, in my opinion, ludicrous. Precision agriculture is extremely important for our country (and those other countries that buy our exported agricultural products). Why put us at a competitive disadvantage against those countries which regularly use drones to perform these functions?
