NO ONE can fly commercially, over or under 200 feet, under a 333 exemption w/o an airman's certificate. Sheets777 can you post the name or company name under which we can read your 333? they are public records and can be found here:Congratulations! Have you reviewed the attachment I posted here----> http://www.phantompilots.com/threads/guidelines-for-legally-operating-a-uas-in-north-carolina.48078/ You are granted a blanket exemption but until you get a pilots permit you can't operate above 200ft. Plus you need to send all your info to the NCDOT Aviation UAS program
Hey! At least one of my opinions was a fact...all you will get here are opinions...
what does your exemption states about airman certificate?Hey! At least one of my opinions was a fact...
In all seriousness though, I do have an exemption. So, I'd be happy to share the facts I know.
That's FAAspeak for a pilot's license. Yes a sport pilot's license is the cheapest way to go.How do you get an "airman certificate"?
Google the requirements for private or sportsman. U can find it on the FAA site too. Private is written test (ground school) , 40 hrs min flight time. 20 duel 20 solo. Then flight test. If u like aviation it will be the most fun thing u ever do! Pvt pilot prob around 5 to 7 thousand. Sportsman would be less.How do you get an "airman certificate"?
He'll probably appreciate it more than he'll admit. Us old guys are like that. My passion was flying, solo at 16 (before learning to drive) , PP at 17, and commercial at 23. I flew search and rescue with the Civil Air Patrol, during a mission had a very close call and started to think about my wife and baby, not fair to them. So, I stopped flying in 1977. UAVs are like a second chanceMy father is a private pilot and was with the FAA as an air traffic controller for 27 years. I'm going to try and involve him in maybe learning to fly...
What i great advantage. U r lucky!! He might hav some CFI friends! [emoji6]My father is a private pilot and was with the FAA as an air traffic controller for 27 years. I'm going to try and involve him in maybe learning to fly...
My bud in the FAA thinks a pilot certificate will not be a requirement when the final rules are codified. They were supposed to be done by end of 15 but i heard they extended it 6months.Ok so let me get this straight:
In order to pilot a Phantom 3 Commercially to obtain revenue with a business, I need to receive at the least an Airman Certificate of the minimum (sport pilot), and receive the Section 333 Exemption from the FAA? Anything else?
From what I've heard, they pretty much ignored over 30K comments from the public, and now the big boys (business lobby) are directing much of the rule changes. We'll see.My bud in the FAA thinks a pilot certificate will not be a requirement when the final rules are codified. They were supposed to be done by end of 15 but i heard they extended it 6months.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Meet the FAA!!!You personally do not need a pilot certificate, but you must have a PIC that does, and a visual observer (VO). You could be the VO.
It reminds me of the law where I live that requires the newspaper delivery boy of 11 years old that must have a motorcycle license to use his bicycle to deliver my newspaper.
(Please don't flame me, I was just offering an analogy).

You probably should think about liability insurance as well
