A battle for the skies, with Emer Walsh

Earlier this week, word began circulating among drone operators
in Cork – architects, roofers, corporate video creators and
wedding photographers – of a new rule requiring two days' notice
of intention to fly a drone over large swathes of the city.


The IAA had announced the new rule, which comes into effect
today, quickly and with little fanfare, and as the Irish
Examiner's Emer Walsh reported on Monday, the operators were not
happy.  


What is the new rule, who’s impacted, and – perhaps most
importantly – who stands to benefit?


Business reporter Emer Walsh explains the issues on today’s
episode of The Deirdre O’Shaughnessy Podcast.
