If private organizations can't use drones to help with natural disasters, such as those in Colorado, how do you suppose this will get approved to fly near local airports and various cities and towns won't outlaw the flying of drones?
Of course, there's always the question: How do you deliver to high-rise apartments and other high-density dwellings?
During the Colorado flood, the area around it was under temporary flight restrictions, as determined by the FAA, and no unauthorized aircraft were allowed to fly in it.
While TFR's are getting vastly more common as every penny-ante promoter wants to make every event seem so big it needs special FAA protection to allow it to run, the reality is that 99% of the time, 99% of the airspace is available for private and commercial air operations.
