It’s an affordable and accessible starting point for future aviators, and a great introduction to dealing with the FAA.

If you intend on flying a drone in anyway that will help your business, you’re going to need your part 107 certificate.

Even just promoting a business on social media.

First thing, download a free copy of our Introduction to Part 107 ebook.

This will give you a free look at who needs a part 107, and the process of earning your part 107.

Then, buy our Remote Pilot Bundle when you’re ready to start learning the material.

This book goes over eligibility, the process of applying for your certificate, and gives a detailed story of an aviation student whose first FAA certificate was a remote pilot certificate.

One great thing about your Part 107 is anyone 16 years of age who can read, write, and speak English can earn theirs with very few exceptions.

You can even take the knowledge test before you are 16 so that you can start flying commercial drone missions on your 16th birthday.

Those who engage in commercial drone flights without this certificate risk big fines, and the training you get from taking our ground course will help you make smart decisions about missions and behavior not to engage in, that will keep you from running afoul the FAA.

Unmanned aircraft are still aircraft, and operate in the same airspace that manned pilots operate in.

Another great thing is that the Part 107 is by far the least expensive aviation certificate you can train for and test for.

For less than $400 you can be certificated to fly drones commercially in the USA.

After you’ve read Introduction to 107, and earned your certificate, your next read should be Launching Your Aviation Career, by Meg Godlewski.

This 85 page ebook provides a great introduction to the many uses there are for unmanned aircraft, and gives you some great ideas for how to make money once you’re a certified commercial drone pilot.
