Overview
|
If you are interested in pursuing and obtaining the Remote Pilot Certificate required to operate drones for commercial use, this textbook is for you. With a friendly and readable style, the author covers the details involved in becoming a competent, responsible, and safe remote pilot, while opening tremendous opportunities for flying increasingly affordable and sophisticated small uncrewed aircraft systems (sUAS).
Earning a Remote Pilot Certificate requires passing an FAA Knowledge Exam. The Complete Remote Pilot not only prepares you for the exam but also teaches you about how drones fly, their components and systems, and the requirements to fly in the same airspace as crewed aircraft. Learn specifics on drone terminology, regulations, airspace and navigation, airport and off-airport operations, radio communication procedures, weather, aerodynamics and aircraft performance, emergency procedures, human factors, maintenance, and preflight inspection procedures. This third edition incorporates regulation changes in 14 CFR Parts 89 and 107 for sUAS equipment; operating at night and over people; remote pilot knowledge, training, and certification; and remote identification of uncrewed aircraft. Augmented with specific tips and techniques, checklists, and mnemonic devices, as well as new review questions for each chapter similar to the type found on the FAA test, a comprehensive glossary, and an index, The Complete Remote Pilot provides the practical knowledge needed to pass the FAA Knowledge Exam and operate safely as a remote pilot in the US National Airspace System. |
