Stories from 400 FeetWhat Is Law Tech Connect?Getting the permission to take off is often one of the first challenges you'll encounter when conducting a drone operation. You may run up against regulations, state and local laws, or unexpected temporary flight restrictions (TFRs). What the industry doesn't realize is how often those rules, regulations, and laws are being built by people who don't understand what drones can do and what pilots need to do. The Law-Tech Connect Workshop, being held on April 25th at AUVSI 2022 in Orlando, Florida, is a much needed platform to bring attorneys and industry stakeholders to the table to educate, ne...2022-03-0725 min

Where Wine Takes You - A Paso Wine PodcastEp 37 – Navy Fighter Pilots & Explosive ExpertsIn this episode of WWTY we celebrate Veteran’s Day and the service and heart behind the men and women who served in our Armed Forces.
The more I dug into the amount of Paso producers who have served was enlightening to say the least, and it would take many many shows to cover them all.
That being said, we got three veterans in this episode that have dealt with far more courageous and anxiety ridden scenarios than say a stuck ferment.

Nuntii LatiniQuid Niinistö dixeritIn Finlandia de inaequalitate regionali disputatum est. Hanc quaestionem etiam praesidens Sauli Niinistö tetigit, cum iter provinciale in urbem Joensuu suscepisset. ”Rei publicae”, inquit, ”plurimi interest, ut tota terra incolatur et ruri iuvenes agricolae habitent, qui cibariis proferendis operam dent et de silvis nostris diligenter curent”.

De Consilio Europaeo
Maior pars civitatum Consilii Europaei sperat fore, ut Russia in Consilio remaneat. Russi abhinc duos annos pretia societatis exsolvere desierunt, cum Crimaea capta iis in sessionibus generalibus venia loquendi non data esset. In conventu Helsinkii nuper habito statutum est, ut officia Russiae praestanda essent, si particeps negotiorum Consilii esse desid...2019-05-2400 min
Nuntii LatiniIctus in duas meschitas Novae ZelandiaeIn urbe Christchurch Novae Zelandiae Idibus Martiis (15.3.) ictus terroristicus in duas meschitas factus est, in quibus inter preces postmeridianas quinquaginta homines sclopetando occisi, totidem fere vulnerati sunt. Inter victimas erant Pakistani, Turci, Arabes Saudiani, Indonesiani, Malesiani. Auctor sceleris est iuvenis Australianus duodetriginta annorum. Occisor brevi captus et carceratus est. In interreti descripserat se nationalistam et razistam et negaverat se ad ullum ordinem aut gregem pertinere. Se voluisse ulcisci mortem Europaeorum, qui in ictibus terroristicis aggressorum islamicorum perissent. Nuntiavit se advocatum in iudicio nolle et semet ipsum rem suam acturum esse.

And what’s more—with upgrades, some aircraft change generations.

Nuntii LatiniNuntii LatiniPost longas consultationes regimen Finnorum de renovatione curae socialis et valetudinis concordiam invenit. Regiones autonomae, de servitiis responsales, erunt duodeviginti, sed servitia in tantum quindecim regionibus praebebuntur. Legislatio de libertate eligendi ita renovabitur, ut homines ipsi servitia publica aut privata aut alia eligere possint. Consultationes inter factiones, quae sunt in regimine, erant tam difficiles, ut iam in eo erat, ut regimen dissolveretur. Conservativi minorem numerum regionum autonomarum voluissent quam primus minister Juha Sipilä, factionis Centralis, proposuerat. Cum dissolutio regiminis commodo patriae non servisset, factio Conservativa numerum regionum sibi ingratam probavit.
