FlightSafety International, in conjunction with Praxis Aerospace Concepts, has developed a practical UAS flight training programme that will help commercial UAS operators improve safety levels and proficiency, the company announced on 7 February.
The training will initially be offered in the Las Vegas area and at several FlightSafety learning centres in the US. The AUVSI TOP-compliant courses will focus on standardisation and professionalism. The courses have been developed to ASTM International UAS standards as well as several other national aviation authority standards throughout the world.
