Temporary Ban on Flights Over ‘Critical Infrastructure’ Amid Drone Sightings…
Federal authorities plan to temporarily ban flights over critical infrastructure sites in New York state as the area deals with a rash of reports of drones, Gov. Kathy Hochul said Thursday.
Hochul’s announcement came after the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) placed drone flight restrictions over certain parts of New Jersey.
Hochul described the decision as “purely precautionary,” but did not provide further details on what sites would be covered, to what degree flights would be banned, and for how long.
