As the saga of developing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs, or drone) to carry goods and shipments continues, some regions are emerging as forerunners in the development, adoption and regulation of drones.

In this episode of On Air with Air Cargo World, we sit down with Cathy Roberson, Cargo Facts Consulting senior consultant and Air Cargo World columnist, to discuss trends and challenges in the application of drones across logistics chains, as well as the position various countries are taking on drone development.
