It look like San Bernardino would start seeing a lot more than birds in the air. It looks like the local airport might become a new testing ground for commercial drone research and development.the San Bernardino International Airport is partnering with the Tesla Foundation Group, no relation to Elon Musk's Tesla Motors, to bring some awesome opportunities to San Bernardino. This partnership is also going to create new classes in the SBCCD that will train the workforce in drones. Valley College could start to see some of these classes in the near future, so make sure to stay tuned.
