The unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) industry continues to be a highly dynamic and constantly evolving industry with the advancement of science and technological enablement. With that in mind, the aim of this expanded edition is to identify and survey the fundamentals of UAS operations, which will serve both as a basic orientation to UAS and as a foundation for further study. Content herein is suitable for both introductory and advanced systems studies. This work was originally birthed out of an unsuccessful search for suitable texts for such a course. As in the first two editions, the chapters have been individually contributed by some of the nation’s foremost experts in UAS operations from all corners of both higher education and industry; therefore, the reader may note some variation in writing style. It was decided to leave the contributions in this form in the interest of preserving the author’s intent, thereby improving the quality of information contained herein. It is the editors’ suggestion that introductory students focus on Chapters 1– 7, 9, 15, 17, 19, and 20 for a total of 12 chapters. The remainder can be used at the instructor’s discre- tion and for advanced technical study. This publication would not have been possible without the close cooperation of all the editors and contributors; a heartfelt thank you to all who gave of your time to make this possible. Your feedback is welcomed as a basis for future editions of this book as the industry continues to advance. vii viii ix Acknowledgments As editors we would first like to thank our contributing authors for their valuable time and expertise. Without you, this book would simply not have nearly the breadth and depth that it does with your input. We also would like to thank Beth Drescher, who spent many hours on first read- throughs and working on format consistency. Beth, your expertise made the burden of such a large text manageable. We would also like to send out a note of thanks to our spouses, Anita, Sandi, and Lisa, who let us give up hours of our time and in some cases helped us with syntax and flow. We thank you! ix
