A good step in the right direction. I wonder who/what it would take to get a waver from these regulations. As a drone pilot myself, it's good to see training requirements and background checks, and hope they will do more to clarify the legitimate privacy concerns that people can have.
The one part that I found very interesting is 'First-person view camera cannot satisfy “see-and-avoid” requirement but can be used as long as requirement is satisfied in other ways,' opening the door for some wiggle room on how the line of sight and see-and-avoid rules get applied.

- aioprisan 10y ago"The FAA also will educate all commercial drone pilots on privacy during their pilot certification process; and will issue new guidance to local and state governments on drone privacy issues." So it looks like the local laws may be part of the actual test itself and issue guidance to local and state governments, although it's very vaguely written.
