NUAIR NUAIR (Northeast UAS Airspace Integration Research Alliance, Inc.) Visit www.nuair.org to learn more.

Driving economic development through Uncrewed Aircraft Systems (UAS) and Advanced Air Mobility (AAM) to safely integrate into the national airspace, NUAIR helps its partners combine efficiency and innovation to help build Whatโ€™s Next . . . is a New York based nonprofit organization that provides unsurpassed expertise in unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) operations, aeronautical research, safety management and consulting services. Headquartered in Syracuse, NUAIR manages operations of the New York UAS Test Site at Griffiss International Airport in Rome, NY, one of just seven FAA-designated UAS test sites in the United States and is responsible to the FAA and NASA to conduct operations for UAS and advanced air mobility (AAM) eVTOL testing. NUAIR is responsible for the continued development and advancement of New Yorkโ€™s AAM Proving Grounds and 50-mile UAS corridor between Syracuse and Rome, facilitating beyond visual line of sight testing, commercial operations, and the safe integration of UAS and eVTOLS into the national airspace.

Traffic safety never goes out of style, and neither does finding better ways to protect the people on New Yorkโ€™s roads. ๐Ÿšง

Drones are already changing highway safety work. Crash scenes can be documented faster, so lanes clear sooner and responders spend less time exposed to traffic. Crews can inspect infrastructure without stepping into live lanes. Incident commanders get a view from above when they need it most.

Next week, Nate Bazydlo and Brice Basic head to Lake Placid for the New York State Highway Safety Symposium, merged this year with the Empire State Law Enforcement Traffic Safety (ESLETS) Conference.

NUAIR operates at the intersection of drones and traffic safety, helping New York agencies put drone programs to work. Weโ€™re looking forward to connecting with law enforcement, traffic engineers, public health officials, and traffic safety boards from across the state!

LETech award notices haven't been announced yet, but the work that decides whether a funded drone program succeeds can start now.

Join NUAIR for a practical playbook on what to do once your funding is confirmed: procurement, compliance, training, SOPs, and how to avoid equipment that sits on a shelf.

Plus, hear directly from Mark Bender, Oswego County Drone and Robotics Coordinator on what it took to launch their DFR program with NUAIR.

For public-safety agencies pursuing UAS, DFR-enabling technology, training, software, or related implementation support, an award is an important milestoneโ€”but it is only the beginning.

The next step is building a safe, compliant, and sustainable capability that aligns technology with mission needs, trained personnel, documented procedures, procurement readiness, and measurable outcomes.

Today marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11th attacks.

We pause to remember those we lost, the first responders who ran toward danger, and the families who have carried this loss for a quarter century.

September 11th also reshaped how our nation approaches security and airspace, work that remains central to our mission today. As we reflect, we recommit to the vigilance, service, and unity this day continues to call for.

Too often, grant-funded equipment sits in a storage room while agencies figure out SOPs, pilot certifications, airspace approvals, and data policy after the fact. The agencies that get the most out of their investment start building that operational foundation before the check clears, not after.

NUAIR works with New York public-safety agencies on exactly this: turning an award into a program that flies, safely and sustainably.
