The distinctive whine of a drone is familiar to most of us by now, and these miniature flying machines have played a valuable role in everything from house surveys to search and rescue operations

Writing in this week’s NLJ, Ed Cracknell, partner, Russell-Cooke, predicts their use will continue to expand and takes a crack at the difficult issue of drone regulation.
