A couple weeks ago I saw a job listing nearby me that requires an FAA Part 107 license, also known as a Remote Pilot Certificate.
- I applied, heard nothing back, and they recently relisted the job, indicating it's still open.
- It got me poking around, and it seems like it would take a couple of weeks studying, plus a couple hour drive and $175 to take the test.
- I've set up a couple of related online accounts, but haven't started studying or scheduled a test.
- It seems like it would be feasible for me to get the license/certificate just by listening to youtube courses while washing dishes and doing other chores, and then do a couple of practice tests.
- I don't currently own a drone for practicing, but my initial impression is that there is actually no need to have any practical experience in anything besides map-reading for the test.
