Welcome to Three Lawyers and a Drone, a podcast hosted by members of Thompson Coburn’s Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS) practice.

Three Lawyers and a Drone will explore the legal and business challenges posed by integrating unmanned aircraft into the National Airspace System, and how the expanding use of UAS is affecting the general public, private industry and government regulators. Our podcasters have over 30 collective years of experience in the transportation regulatory industry, and will use that experience to offer insights on a variety of drone-related topics and trends.
