    --Step 2 - Create IACRA Account and Obtain FTN
    1) Go the IACRA Home Page:
    Look for the "REGISTER" option, usually located in the top right corner of the page.
    Click on "REGISTER" to initiate the registration process.
    2) Choose Applicant Role:
    On the registration page, locate and select the "Applicant" option among the checkboxes.
    3) Complete Personal Information:
    Fill out all required personal information on the registration form.
    In the "Certificate Information" section, leave it blank if you don't have a certificate at the moment.
    Input your name, email address, date of birth, and create a unique username and password.
    Once all information is entered, proceed to register.
    4) FAA Tracking Number Display:
    After registration, you'll be directed to the next screen.
    Locate your FAA Tracking Number displayed on this screen, along with your username.
    5) Important: Document the FAA Tracking Number:
    Take a screenshot of the screen displaying your FAA Tracking Number.
    Alternatively, write down the FAA Tracking Number. This information will be crucial in later stages of the process.
    Store the FAA Tracking Number in a secure place, as you will need it for future steps in the application process.
    Don't let the process intimidate you! Follow these steps, study effectively, and soon you'll be a certified Remote Pilot in Command. If you have questions, feel free to ask in the comments. Happy flying!

      You only need a license if you want to fly commercially. However, even if you want to be a recreational operator you will still need to register the drone if it is above the weight limit and take a online safety exam.

    I have my temporary certificate printed up and just waiting for my permanent one in the mail. Self training for the 107 exam in the studies was a bit difficult actually however i managed. Currently i am just working with a training drone since my last dji was stolen before i even had the chance to use it.
    Once i feel more comfortable, I already have a major compay wanting to employ me however again i just want to be proficient before investing in another dji amd working for someone. I was just wondering how long it will take to get my permanent license in the mail, obviously it takes a bit of time.

    In the FAA webpage they suggest as a study material the "pilot's Handbook of aeronautical knowledge" book that contains about 522 page.
    Do you think is really necesary read it? Or should be enough with the study guide?

    • @DroneLaunchAcademy
      @DroneLaunchAcademy  5 месяцев назад +2

      A real page turner! You don't really need a lot that's in there. Most of it is for manned aviation. You can thumb through it if you want... I'd focus on the airspace/sectional charts info along with info about aviation weather. Outside of that I'd look at other, more condensed resources.

      you can always look up your license on the FAA airmen database to see if they have a record of it (if you ever got a card form the FAA in the mail, it should still be in their system). If you've done the recurrent training in the last 24 calendar months, you should be good to go!

    The FAA does not issue licences to pilots. A 747 pilot does not have a licence to fly. The FAA issues certificates for each kind of aircraft, including several levels of drones. If you must act like a teacher, please learn the proper terminology.

    • @DroneLaunchAcademy
