Take it or leave it.

I've done about 8 jobs for Better View since March. A couple were large parking lots 700,000 sq ft to 900,000 Sq ft at distribution warehouses. The rest were roof inspections and most of them involved travel but the pay has been decent. A couple jobs were very easy and did not pay a lot. The...

There was a job that BetterView declined on because it was too aggressive to do in the time frame the client wanted it. 100 roofs which was set to pay about $3000. Not enough battery and the timeframe was too narrow to get it done. It was an apartment complex.

It seems pretty clear the path an existing pilot must take.

I believe you still have to. The course and exam are all about your knowledge of part 107.

There's no cost. Just create an account if you don't have one.

Yep, I did the course and it had some practice questions and at the end, I click on the two chapter buttons to show I had completed them. Then the review button and the Exam button. Must take the exam all at once. There were about 35 questions, easy enough and the you grade it. Anything you...

I just completed the test and printed out my certificate. Here's the link. Activities, Courses, Seminars & Webinars - ALC_Content - FAA - FAASTeam - FAASafety.gov
