Who can fly a drone? Are there any requirements?

The training is a five day course and will cover theory and practical flying to prepare you for operating safety. This also includes your Aeronautical Radio Operator Certificate (AROC) with English proficiency exams included which is required to operate an air-band radio and communicate with manned aircraft’s.

This is a 1 day course which will cover UAV specific theory and practical flying.
