Hiya!
Do you all have to do this in America?
Or is this so you can do commercial work?
Current in States, can fly as hobbyist or under part 107 rules (with license). If any type of compensation implied or direct, yes, must pass knowledge test for license.
Also passing test one does not need to call airports within that 5 mile radius to notify every time of flight. Also, IMO, as the sport continues growth I’m almost positive they willl pass stricter legislation, so I’m ahead of the curve, and lastly it will give me additional opportunities to fly in state parks where a hobbyist would never be able to obtain permission. This last piece itself is worth it because with the beauty in some parks, I’ll be able to get shots and footage others won’t have.
Can’t forget as well that there’s the personal disciplines I enjoy about learning about the sport.
