Professional UAS Flight Training

• To develop and refine specific practical UAS piloting skills tailored to individual or organizational needs.
• To improve overall flight proficiency, precision, and safety in various operational environments.
• To prepare pilots for specific operational tasks such as aerial filming/photography, inspections, or complex maneuvers.
• To provide hands-on experience in managing emergency scenarios and implementing effective flight preparation.
• To assist pilots in fulfilling practical training components or self-training requirements for EASA certifications (e.g., A2 practical self-training).
• To build confidence and competence through personalized coaching and feedback from expert instructors.

• A valid EASA remote pilot certificate (e.g., A1/A3 as a minimum foundation).
• Specific prerequisites may apply depending on the chosen training focus:
  1. For "Mandatory self-training for A2": An A1/A3 certificate is required.
  2. For "Practical training EASA specific category": An A1/A3 certificate and potentially theoretical knowledge for the Specific Category (e.g., from RPCT or STS studies).
• Access to a suitable UAS may be required for certain modules, or can be arranged. Please discuss during the intake session.

Our Professional UAS Flight Training is flexible and structured around your needs. An initial intake session will help determine the most suitable training plan. Potential training modules and focus areas include, but are not limited to:

• The mandatory self-training for A2: Guided practical exercises to meet the self-declaration requirements for the EASA A2 certificate.
• Practical training for EASA Specific Category: Hands-on flight training to develop skills required for operations under STS or SORA-based authorisations (complementing theoretical courses like RPCT or STS).
• Practical training general flying skills: Improving fundamental piloting skills, precision maneuvers, orientation, and control in various conditions.
• Drone practical training for filming and photography: Techniques for smooth cinematic movements, framing shots, camera settings, and flying patterns for optimal aerial imagery.
• Drone practical training for emergency scenarios (far and near): Practicing responses to common and critical emergencies like lost C2 link, GPS failure, motor failure, battery issues, and emergency landings in confined or challenging areas.
• Drone practical training for flight preparation: In-depth, hands-on practice of pre-flight planning, site assessment, risk analysis, weather interpretation, and comprehensive UAS checks.

Additional customized modules can be developed based on specific requirements.

This program is entirely focused on practical, hands-on flight training and operational execution. All modules involve extensive flight time with expert instruction, tailored to the specific learning objectives. Activities include:

• Real-world flight scenarios.
• Precision maneuvering exercises.
• Task-specific flight drills (e.g., for filming, inspection patterns).
• Simulated and actual emergency procedure practice.
• Comprehensive pre-flight and post-flight briefing and debriefing sessions.

Assessment is typically continuous throughout the training, with a focus on competency development rather than a formal examination (unless preparing for a specific EASA practical test component).

• Instructor observation and feedback during all practical flight exercises.
• Assessment of proficiency in the specific skills and maneuvers covered in the chosen training modules.
• For modules like "Mandatory self-training for A2," the training helps prepare the pilot for their self-declaration of practical competence.

A Certificate of Completion detailing the training undertaken and skills developed is typically provided.

• Pilots preparing for the EASA A2 category who need to complete their mandatory practical self-training under guidance.
• Pilots progressing to the EASA Specific Category requiring practical skill development for STS or SORA-based operations.
• Certified pilots at any level (A1/A3, A2, STS, RPCT) seeking to improve their general flying skills, confidence, or precision.
• Professionals looking to specialize in areas like aerial cinematography, photography, or specific types of inspections.
• Pilots and organizations wanting to enhance their preparedness for emergency situations.
• Individuals or teams seeking customized flight training solutions.
