Florida Polytechnic police chief says FAA cleared Jetson flights pending registration

Florida Polytechnic University's police chief says an FAA team has approved law enforcement operations using its Jetson ONE aircraft once final registration paperwork arrives. The FAA told New Atlas that the department intends to operate under Part 91 as a Public Aircraft Operation, the framework for government agency flights. Chief Aaron Murray proposes using the aircraft to assess emergencies, reach locations difficult to access by car and deliver critical supplies. He is currently the department's only officer to complete the manufacturer's required training. The aircraft is not yet on patrol, and the department is still developing operating procedures.
