Avoiding Drone, UAV Jail Bait

Would you want to be operated on by someone without a medical license? Would you be worried if your child’s school bus driver didn’t have a driver’s license? Likewise, it’s illegal for any company to operate a UAV without proper licensing.

To avoid criminal penalties, such as the $1.9 million dollar fine that the FAA just filed against SkyPan and make sure you’re working with a legitimate UAV provider like Identified Technologies, with full commercial certification. For your own protection, it’s important to check potential UAV service providers for:

  • Relevant experience
  • Part 107 certified pilot training
  • Safety regulations
  • Individually registered drones
  • Past customer references
  • Years in business

 

Unmanned aircrafts are inherently different from manned aircraft. Introducing UAVs into airspace is a challenge for both the FAA and aviation community, because the U.S. has the busiest, most complex airspace in the world. The FAA is taking an incremental approach to safe drone integration.

Hesitation in any of these areas are signs of a ‘fly-by-night’ service. The pitfalls of using an uncertified operator has significant legal and financial risks.
