The first remote pilot certificates were issued by the FAA nearly two years ago. Like a flight instructor certificate, those certificates are now coming due for some training in order to keep them current and allow pilots to continue exercising the privileges of Part 107.
Part 107 Pilots Require Recurrent Training
Remote pilot certificates are now coming due for some training in order to keep them current.
Key Takeaways:
- FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificates issued nearly two years ago are now due for renewal, requiring pilots to complete recurrent training.
- Renewal options depend on existing certifications: pilots with a Part 61 manned pilot certificate can take an online recurrent course or a knowledge test.
- Those without a Part 61 certificate must take the recurrent Part 107 knowledge test at an authorized knowledge test center.
- Applicants are encouraged to review FAA study materials, including the UAS ACS and Knowledge Test Study Guide, to prepare for renewal.
