Remote Pilot Licence

The full theory and practical program to licence standard — the qualification commercial work is built on.

Course Overview

This is the core qualification. Everything else in professional drone work — endorsements, specialist approvals, an operator certificate — assumes you hold it.

The syllabus is built on ICAO Annex 1 principles and mapped to the requirements of the country you intend to fly in: CAAN's unmanned aircraft requirements in Nepal, CASA Part 101 practice in Australia. The theory is genuine aviation theory, taught by people from a manned-aviation background, because the examiner will treat you as a pilot and so will your clients.

The practical component is flown to a defined competency standard rather than a fixed number of hours. How quickly you reach it depends far more on your prior stick time than on the calendar.

PrerequisitesNo prior licence required. Prior flying experience shortens the practical component.
FormatSeveral days of theory plus practical flight time and assessment. Delivered in Kathmandu and Brisbane, or at your site for groups.
LocationsKathmandu, Nepal · Brisbane, Australia · or at your site
