Chances are you’ve seen the influx of beautiful (and viral) video footage captured by drones. These unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are increasingly dotting the skies and impacting everything from agriculture to shipping to how the military operates. And soon, drones might be bringing you the news, too.

Today, CNN announced an agreement with the FAA to "advance efforts" to incorporate UAVs into its reporting operations. The deal follows a growing number of new organizations turning to drones for research efforts; the technology is not only inexpensive and now nearly ubiquitous, but also an efficient and safe way to provide media outlets with aerial imagery, whether in war zones, disaster areas, and so forth.

Nice, I will beat CNN to an experimental certificate, but I'm not using multirotor. I'll know in the next two months! To think about having a N number, plus experimental, plus it's a UAV is mind bending enough, getting paid to do it on top of all that is insanely awesome.

I hope CNN is able to use them, although I would imagine they already are.

Just don't be like this guy!
