7.4 Discussion: Airspace

The Department of Defense (DOD) wishes to dedicate a large block of airspace over North Dakota to the exclusive use of military unmanned aircraft systems.

·         Can the DOD simply declare that airspace off limits to civil aircraft?

·         If not, how must the DOD proceed if it wishes to accomplish that objective?

·         Will interested persons and organizations, such as the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association, have an opportunity to express their opinions about the proposed change?

·         If so, what law requires that opportunity and how can those interested persons and organizations take advantage of that opportunity?

·         If the State of North Dakota does not want unmanned aircraft flying over the state, can it enact and enforce a law prohibiting those over flights? Explain.
