State Bar of Texas PodcastIn this episode of the State Bar of Texas Podcast, host Rocky Dhir welcomes Dallas attorney Kent C. Krause to discuss the basics of aviation law—many attorneys have limited knowledge of this expansive area of the law—and dig into its evolving issues and changes. Can your neighbor fly his drone into your yard? What’s the difference in legal responsibilities between private aviators and commercial airlines? How is AI impacting flight and flight training? The two also discuss the succession of tragic and unsettling airline incidents in 2025 and examine the laws, safety frameworks, and failures that came into play.

Kent C. Krause is a member of Craddock Davis & Krause in Dallas and has practiced extensively in all phases of aviation related litigation and transactional legal matters, a natural extension from a lifelong involvement in aviation, including piloting single-engine fixed-wing aircraft.
