Drone Expertise from an Operator's Perspective

Unmanned aerial systems have fundamentally changed the accessibility of airspace. A consumer drone can capture high-resolution imagery from positions that were previously impossible to reach. For those protecting sensitive locations, this creates considerations that deserve thoughtful evaluation.

Effective airspace security advisory requires understanding how operators think, how systems perform, and where vulnerabilities actually exist. My background isn't theoretical — I've built drone companies, held patents on delivery systems, and operated commercially across diverse environments.

Airspace security engagements provide clear assessment and practical guidance:

• Airspace Threat Modeling

  Analysis of approach vectors, line-of-sight considerations, and likely operator positioning based on real-world operational experience.

• Physical Vulnerability Assessment

  Evaluation of rooftops, perimeters, and sensitive areas from an aerial perspective — identifying what a skilled operator would target.

• Detection Gap Analysis

  Review of existing security infrastructure's ability to detect and track UAS activity.

• Counter-UAS Guidance

  Honest evaluation of detection and mitigation technologies — what works, what doesn't, and what's appropriate for your situation.

• Policy Development

  Response protocols and staff guidance for drone incursions — practical procedures your team can actually execute.
