It’s true that not all superheroes wear capes. In fact, there are some that take flight in the thrilling realm of drones. In our latest podcast episode, we teleport to Neurodiversity Works, a non-profit organization that equips neurodiverse students for a career in the drone industry. Tune in as we embark on a fascinating mission with the co-founder, Jason San Souci.  

In the episode, Jason introduces us to a community of superheroes with an incredible superpower – neurodiversity! Neurodiversity refers to the diversity of all people, but it is often used in the context of autism spectrum disorder and other neurological or developmental conditions like ADHD. Jason strikes down misconceptions and reveals that you don’t need x-ray vision to see that people with this superpower are extraordinary assets in the drone industry and our aerospace community. We also explored the FAA’s role in drone safety with Part 107 rules.

Prepare to shapeshift your knowledge of neurodiversity – a movement built on support, understanding, and empowerment. Discover the lucrative career opportunities for neurodiverse individuals in the drone industry spanning from artificial intelligence and software development to operations and safety. Superman, who?

With superhuman speed, we encourage you to share this episode with your family, friends, and colleagues. 

Learn more about Part 107 and how the FAA collaborates with industry and communities to advance drone operations and integrate them safely into the national airspace.
