Learn to fly drones and gain the knowledge you need for Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) Certification as a Remote Pilot. This FAA Certification is a “Commercial Drone License” – the entry level credential into a worldwide commercial industry growing currently at $5bil per year. The Continuing Education course will be tailored to your career or educational interests and will include how drones enhance such enterprises as agriculture, delivery, construction, energy (oil, gas, utilities), education, research, communications, insurance, inspections (railways, pipelines, powerlines), marketing, mining, entertainment, photography, military and public service, and any other application or use case that only your imagination might limit. Live interactive instruction will be provided by an experienced US Air Force, commercial industry, and FAA certified Flight Instructor with 55+ years and 14,000 flight hours in glider, military, general, experimental, large commercial, and small unmanned (drone) aircraft. Topics will ensure coverage of all knowledge requirements for passing the FAA Initial Airman Knowledge Test for Certification as a Remote Pilot per 14CFR, Part 107.
