What started as a hectic pharmacy run with four kids turned into a mission to transform how goods move through communities.

In this episode of Destination Aviation, Jeffrey Miller sits down with Beth Flippo, founder and CEO of DEXA, one of the few FAA-certified drone carriers in the United States. Beth shares her journey from technology and defense systems to building a company at the forefront of autonomous aviation and last-mile logistics.

The conversation explores the realities of drone delivery, FAA certification, beyond visual line of sight operations, the future of autonomous flight, and how DEXA is helping local businesses compete in a rapidly changing retail landscape. Beth also discusses the challenges of building a highly regulated aviation company, balancing entrepreneurship and family, and why she believes autonomous aviation will reshape the future of commerce.

Whether you're an aviation enthusiast, drone operator, airport professional, or simply curious about the future of flight, this episode offers an inside look at one of the most rapidly evolving sectors in aviation.
