Retailing giant Amazon is looking at its options after they say the FAA’s new rules hamper the company’s exploration of drones for delivering customers’ orders.

The new rules say “drones cannot fly over people not involved the drone operations, and the drones must be flown by an observer on the ground who can maintain visual contact with the aircraft,” according to CBS 19.

“That means we really are not talking about unmanned aerial vehicles. We are talking about something that has to have a person. It defeats the whole purpose,” said Michael E. Drobac, executive director of the Small UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) Coalition. Amazon, Google and GoPro are members of the group.

Because of that, Paul Misener, Amazon vice president for global policy, claims the new FAA rules “wouldn’t allow Prime Air to operate in the United States.”

“The FAA needs to begin and expeditiously complete the formal process to address the needs of our business, and ultimately our customers,” he says. “We are committed to realizing our vision for Prime Air and are prepared to deploy where we have the regulatory support we need.”

Drobac’s interpretation of the new rules is that “there is not going to be the opportunity for delivery.”

According to the news station, several countries, including Canada, the United Kingdom and Denmark already allow drones to be used commercially.

“We are not catching up with this. … We are still probably going to need an act of Congress,” Drobac says.
