## Resource

In this week's episode of Uncrewed Views, Matt Collins speaks with James McDanolds, the director of uncrewed technology at the Sonoran Desert Institute. The two talk about shifts in workforce development and hiring in a BVLOS-centric world, including the roles that will be most in demand following the final rule for Part 108, any potential lags in filling positions in the immediate aftermath of the regulation, and advice for those trying to break into the industry today.
