Part 107 Drone RuleaCan I call the air traffic control tower at my local airport to request permission to fly my drone in Class C or E airspace?According to the FAA, all airspace permission requests must be made through the online portal. This mandate does not appear in the actual language of the Small UAS rule. The rule itself (14 CFR 107) merely requires that you contact the Air Traffic Control facility responsible for the space and obtain permission.

Am I still required to take the FAA knowledge test to get a drone pilot license?Yes. Prior drone training may be helpful to new applicants preparing for the knowledge test, but prior training, even if the training involved some type of test, cannot be substituted for the FAA’s knowledge test administered by a FAA approved testing center.

Do I need to obtain a separate drone pilot license?Yes, if you plan to fly the drone for anything other than recreational purposes (under the authority of 14 CFR 107) then you will need to obtain a drone pilot license. The FAA created a separate drone pilot license (called a remote pilot certificate) for anyone piloting a drone under the Part 107 rule. The remote pilot certificate can be obtained by taking and passing an aeronautical knowledge test. However, anyone who holds a part 61 pilot certificate and has completed a flight review within the past 24 months may obtain the new remote pilot certificate by taking an online training course that focuses on drone-specific areas of knowledge instead sitting for the knowledge test. Everyone else will be required to take and pass the initial aeronautical knowledge test to obtain a remote pilot certificate.
