FAA starts testing its drone safety app

Back in May, the Federal Aviation Administration announced plans to test an app for drone hobbyists that'll ensure they're flying in approved airspace. The mobile software appears to be on schedule as B4UFLY is now in closed beta for iOS. Up to 1,000 UAV users will test the app that's primarily aimed at keeping you informed about which areas are safe to fly. (www.engadget.com) Plus d'info...

So who is this going to help, exactly? Honest people will have fun staying honest. Don't see how this is going to help idiots be less so...

As a RC hobbist myself I doubt many people realize how close 5 miles is to an airport so It'll probably help some park fliers. Agreed it won't stop the idiots. I primarily see the FAA gathering a user list and if they ever needed to track a drone at least they would have a clue instead of the nothing they have now.
