An offshoot of Alphabet Inc.’s Google has become the first drone operator to receive government approval as an airline, an important step that gives it the legal authority to begin dropping products to customers.

A Wing Hummingbird drone carries a package of ice cream and popsicles during a 2018 demonstration in Blacksburg, Va.

It required Wing to create extensive manuals, training routines and a safety hierarchy — just as any air carrier must do. Mark Blanks, director of the Virginia Tech Mid-Atlantic Aviation Partnership, which has been working with Wing on tests of the deliveries, said they would “be working with the community a lot more as we prepare to roll this out.”

Some drone companies have complained that the process was too onerous. Many of the requirements that made sense for a charter airline — like flight attendants and seat belts for the crew — didn’t apply to them.
