This is a lengthy\/drawn out process that takes months to materialize.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Civil. <\/strong>This includes commercial and private industry operators. Civilian operators do not have to obtain a Certificate of Authorization or Waiver otherwise known as a COA. They do, however, need approval to operate by obtaining a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/aircraft\/air_cert\/airworthiness_certification\/sp_awcert\/\" target=\"_blank\">Special Airworthiness Certificate (SAC)<\/a> from the FAA. The necessary steps for SAC obtainment are cumbersome. The one step that stands out is the necessary requirement of being a certified pilot regardless of aircraft size or operating altitude. This is a great barrier since the vast majority of people interested in operating UAS are not certified pilots.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Recreation \/ Sport<\/strong>. Any person operating a model-aircraft UAS for recreation or sport or hobby falls into this category. Hobbyists are to abide by the 1981 document <a href=\"http:\/\/www.airweb.faa.gov\/Regulatory_and_Guidance_Library\/rgAdvisoryCircular.nsf\/0\/1acfc3f689769a56862569e70077c9cc\/$FILE\/ATTBJMAC\/ac91-57.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">AC 91-57<\/a> and fly without certification or approval.
