In undertaking this study, the committee considered recent, current, and planned FAA efforts to evaluate the risks associated with the integration of UAS into the National Airspace System and risk assessment methods. It also considered mechanisms for assessing severity and likelihood metrics required for probabilistic and other appropriate risk assessment methods based on UAS design characteristics (e.g., weight, speed, materials, and technologies)

The committee has concluded that an evolution of current FAA risk assessment methodologies is needed to integrate UAS into the National Airspace System in a timely yet safe manner. A principal driver of this conclusion is the wide variety and number of UAS operations in tandem with societal safety-related benefits that those operations can provide the public.

Chapter 3 summarizes the committee's assessment of current FAA practices with regard to probabilistic risk analysis for UAS operations, to include the FAA safety culture and risk assessment processes. Chapter 4 presents the bulk of the committee's recommendations for evolving the FAA decision-making paradigm for assessing risk of UAS operations.
