The Obama administration is opening U.S. skies to more commercial drones with long-awaited regulations that the government hopes will spawn new industries.
The Amtrak engineer at the controls of a speeding train that derailed in Philadelphia last year, killing eight people, was distracted in the moments before the accident.
Airlines flying Boeing Co.s 787 Dreamliner jets with the latest General Electric Co. engines were ordered to repair them, or swap out at least one with an older model, in an urgent safety directive after a recent in-flight event.
U.S. aviation regulators have granted the first approval for commercial drone flights at night in the latest example of the expanding uses of unmanned aircraft.
Reports of errant drones flouting U.S. regulations, including flying too close to passenger airliners, surged late last year to an average of four incidents per day.
