# Russellville DroneSense Flight Log The second item of RPD's rolling production: `DroneSense Flight Logs RPD.pdf`, a 22-page image-rendered table from [[DroneSense]], the department's drone-operations platform, transmitted by Asst. Chief [[Phillip Varnell]] on 2026-07-24 with the statement: "I've attached the drone flight log information. I will not be able to further work on this request until early to mid-next week." RPD's 2026-07-28 supplement supplies the coordinate-bearing companion, current inventory, and policy needed to interpret this first export ([[Russellville Drone Inventory Policy and Flight Coordinates]]). *Erratum, 2026-07-28: the companion export and frozen row join establish 724 session rows, four mission labels, and a date range beginning 2023-11-28. The first-pass figures below describe what could be recovered from this PDF alone, not the completed paired dataset.* ## Structure and aggregates (computed from the 300-dpi OCR; column-major layout, so row-level joins are approximate) - **Columns:** Name (five-character flight code), Created Date, Archived flag, Start Time, End Time, Flight Hours, Flight Duration, Pilot Last Name, Drone Name, Training flag, Mission Names. - **Volume and span:** 724 session rows. The paired extraction establishes a date range of November 28, 2023 through July 20, 2026 — a program predating the department's Flock network by over a year. - **Aircraft:** "Drone 1," "Drone 2," and "Drone 3," plus a single `1206EOS` OCR/designator value. This PDF has no manufacturer/model column; the supplement identifies the current dashboard aircraft as two DJI Mavic 2 Enterprise Advanced units and one DJI Mavic 3 Thermal. - **Pilots:** eight-plus last names, led by Spradlin (~168) and Murphy (~157), then Baccam, Tolich, Richard, Cromer, Gresham, with a few single-flight names (OCR variants collapsed). - **Missions:** this first-pass OCR exposed mostly `RPD Call for service` and `Training Flights`. The paired dataset establishes 336 call-for-service rows, 303 training rows, 70 `Eclipse 2024` rows, and ten `2025 Christmas Parade` rows; no case numbers, incident types, or free-text descriptions appear. ## Key takeaways - **No location fields exist in this particular PDF** — no coordinates, addresses, or incident locations. The later companion supplies latitude/longitude by flight ID; 719 dated joins now appear in [[Arkansas Camera Map Data]] as logged takeoff events, not fixed cameras. - The mission field is categorical rather than incident-narrative. The completed pair exposes four categories without identifying case numbers or free-text deployment targets. - The transmittal's scheduling statement pauses the rolling production to early-to-mid the week of July 27. ## People and orgs mentioned - [[Phillip Varnell]] · [[Russellville Police Department]] · [[DroneSense]] ## Cross-references - [[FCSO Skydio X10 Flight Log]] — the corpus's other produced flight log, opposite in location posture. - [[Russellville Drone Inventory Policy and Flight Coordinates]] — the companion export, current aircraft dashboard, policy, frozen join, and mapping result. - [[Law-Enforcement Drone and UAS Programs]] — the cross-agency comparison placing the production in context. - [[russellville-pd/2026-07-23-first-items-production/_overview|Russellville First Items Production]] — the preceding rolling item. ## Open questions / follow-ups - Full GPS track geometry beyond takeoff coordinates; current-aircraft procurement/funding records; and the disposition of historically logged Matrice airframes.
