FLIR ITC Part 107 Online – Intro to FAA Part 107

Intro to FAA Part 107. Online, On-Demand (Self-Paced).

The FAA has developed regulations to allow the operation of small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS or drone) in the National Airspace System (NAS) for purposes other than hobby and recreation. The rules are specified in 14 CFR part 107 and address UAS classification, certification, and operating rules.

This course is designed to introduce applicants wishing to operate an sUAS for commercial purposes to Part 107 knowledge. In addition, we include an infrared thermography primer for those wishing to use airborne thermography as an inspection tool.

Course Structure

This course can be taken on a computer, tablet, or smartphone. For the best experience, we suggest a device with a larger screen for easier readability. It will take approximately 2.3 hours to complete this material.

At the conclusion of each lesson, there will be a knowledge check followed by a lesson summary.

At the conclusion of the course, you may then print a course completion certificate.
