As I understand new UAV ruling Part 61 has everything to do with sport pilot's licenseprivate/ pilot's license/ yada-yada-yada that being said it seems a sport pilot license is still required at minimum to fly a uav.I do not know or understand about the TSA requirements... it seems the new UAV certificate still requires FAA Ground School and testing as well as the TSA certification, but like the sport pilot's license no Third Class Medical is required just a driver's license. Not quite sure on the triple 3 exemption but I'll bet my bottom dollar that it's still going to be a requirement along with its COA..... I'm still confused I have a pilot's license I have my triple 3 exemption do I need to go to the TSA for a certification???? Anybody out there that knows anything about this any replies would be greatly appreciated thanks
If you are "current" with your PPL you will have to only take the online test (when it's available). You're already vetted with TSA by the mere fact you have a PPL. Key word being "current". Simply having been granted a PPL in 1982 does not meet the requirements.
