Federal officials will test new tech at Los Angeles International Airport after dozens of drone sightings and reports of a 'guy in a jetpack.'
— near Los Angeles International Airport, the Transportation Security Administration will test new technology to spot, track and identify drones in restricted airspace.
There have been 38 drone sightings this year at LAX, including one within 700 feet of an aircraft, according to the TSA. Since last year, there have been 90 visual sightings and 5,200 technical detections of drones within three miles of LAX. In 2020, multiple pilots said they had seen someone flying in a jetpack at high altitude near the airport. The reports were never confirmed; thepilots may have been seeing balloons, and another theory was that the object could have been a drone with a mannequin.
According to the TSA, the program at Miami, which was launched last summer, has detected thousands of drone flights near the airport.
