Exam Prep

I am very excited to be finally beginning the preparation to take the certification knowledge exam to fly drones commercially. It is an exam that every drone pilot should take regardless of the use of the drone. The exam covers many concepts. In this blog post, I will give an overview of the first section of the exam which includes many of the F.A.A. regulations. It is important to understand your basic flight concepts and acronyms as the exam will be full of them. The rules and regulations section of the exam covers safety concerns, such as who can fly the small unmanned aerial system (sUAS) and how high. In addition, it covers basic rules such as how to register your drone with F.A.A. 

In addition to rules, the next section I am working on is airspace. Understanding use of airspace is extremely important for the drone pilot. Because it is shared with manned aircraft, the F.A.A. requires drone pilots to understand the various airspace classes that manned aircraft use on a regular basis. This is for the safety of everyone.

The test is considered to be rigorous and technical, however understanding the material covered will take a drone pilot to the next level. Even hobbyists should know this important information. To use your drone as a function of business, it is a federal requirement.
