Drone pilots are in demand. In fact, the Association for Unmanned Vehicle Systems International projected more than 100,000 new jobs will be created in unmanned aircraft by the year 2025. A recent report from Goldman Sachs projected $17 billion of spending on drones coming from consumers and another $13 billion from commercial and civil industries. That's because more professionals, like realtors, security firms, advertising agencies, architects, construction firms and developers are looking for aerial video to do business.

FAA Makes Major Drone ID Marking Change -
Remember to mark the outside of your drone with your FAA-issued registration number. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) rule, now in effect in the Federal Register, requires small drone owners to display the FAA-issued registration number on an outside surface of the aircraft. Owners and operators may no longer place or write registration numbers in an interior compartment. The markings must be in place for any flight after that date. Learn more.


Please Note: Residency fees apply ($5 per course for residents outside Frederick County and $10 per course for non-Maryland students). Learn more >>
