WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump has signed three executive orders dealing with drone regulations and encouraging the development of flying cars and supersonic flights. The orders will help clear the way for companies to use drones beyond operators’ line of sight, while also imposing restrictions to help protect against terrorism, espionage and public safety threats. Drones are used in a variety of ways, including rescue operations, power line inspections and even package delivery.
