Pilot Certification
To operate the controls of a small UAS under Part 107, you need a remote pilot certificate with a
small UAS rating , or be under the direct supervision of a person who holds such a certificate
You must be at least 16 years old to qualify for a remote pilot certificate, and you can obtain it in
one of two ways.
•
You may pass an initial aeronautical knowledge test at an FAA-approved knowledge testing
center.
•
If you already have a Part 61 pilot certificate, you must have completed a flight review in the
previous 24 months and you must take a small UAS online training course provided by the FAA.
If you have a Part 61 certificate, you will immediately receive a temporary remote pilot certificate
when you apply for a permanent certificate. Other applicants will obtain a temporary remote pilot
certificate upon successful completion of TSA security vetting. We anticipate we will be able to
issue temporary certificates within 10 business days after receiving a completed application.
UAS Certification
You are responsible for ensuring a drone is safe before flying, but the FAA does not require small
UAS to comply with current agency airworthiness standards or obtain aircraft certification. For
example, you will have to perform a preflight inspection that includes checking the
communications link between the control station and the UAS.
Other Requirements
If you are acting as pilot in command, you have to comply with several other provisions of the
rule:
•
You must make your drone available to the FAA for inspection or testing on request, and you
must provide any associated records required to be kept under the rule.
•
You must report any operation that results in serious injury, loss of consciousness, or property
damage of at least $500.to the FAA within 10 days
Waivers and Airspace Authorizations
The FAA can issue waivers to certain requirements of Part 107 if an operator demonstrates they
can fly safely under the waiver without endangering other aircraft or people and property on the
ground or in the air. Operations in Class G airspace are allowed without air traffic control
permission. Operations in Class B, C, D and E airspace need ATC approval .
In November 2017, the FAA deployed the Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability
(LAANC – pronounced “LANCE”) for drone operators at several air traffic facilities in an
evaluation to see how well the prototype system functions and to address any issues that arise
during testing. A beta test expansion of the system began on April 30, 2018 to deploy LAANC
incrementally at nearly 300 air traffic facilities covering approximately 500 airports. The final
deployment will begin on September 13.
The FAA expects LAANC will ultimately provide near real-time processing of airspace
authorization requests for drone operators nationwide. The system is designed to automatically
approve most requests to operate in specific areas of airspace below designated altitudes.
