    Yeah, I have copies. :)

    USA Any one get their 107 Certificate?

    As of this morning my "green button" that linked to my temp certificate is no longer showing up. I can only hope that means my certification has been put in the mail and I will have it soon.

    USA Title 14 CFR Part 107 Waivers (Post your approved/rejected)

    Congrats! At least someone is having some success. :) I got a form response from them today that they were unable to process my request because I failed to give them at least 90 days notice. I guess that is going to be their way of clearing out the back log of requests.

    USA Title 14 CFR Part 107 Waivers (Post your approved/rejected)

    You can submit for a waiver one you get your temporary certificate. In the Waiver and Airspace Authorization Application Instructions it says that, if you don't have your Cert # to put Pending in that field.

    Airman Certificate Question

    I took my exam on the first day, 8/29, and am still waiting for the real card. I thought I had seen someone post that they got theirs, but not sure. Of course, I've been traveling since last Saturday so it is possible that my card is in my mailbox.

    Hourly Drone Insurance

    Those enhancements are nice and I am glad to see that things are moving along so well. With regard to duration of flight, I would like to have the option to pick how many hours I need. Sometimes I need 1, sometimes 2, etc. Having a choice between 1, 4 and 8 is a good start, but not totally...

    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    No Coordinates is pretty simple. It gives you the actual coordinates which are needed for airspace authorizations on the FAA website.

    The temporary cert doesn't have a number. It just says "Pending"

    Hourly Drone Insurance

    I had my first experience with Verifly yesterday and I gotta say, I liked it a lot. This was my first job after my previous policy ended. Showed up at the job location, walked the area to get frame of reference of what I was gonna shoot. Went into the app (I had already loaded all my info...

    Any use for dud TB48 batteries?

    I also have a TB47 that I haven't used in over 6 months. I wanted to charge it up as a back up for a job today, but none of the lights will turn on. I've had it on a charger for about 10 minutes and still nothing. I don't think resetting the firmware on the battery will help, but I guess I'll...

    Remove geofencing?

    I think was you saw was just a way to turn off the "warning areas". If you want to fly in a totally restricted zone (red circle, not yellow) you need to jump through all the DJI hoops. I just wish that they would come out with a way to remove all geofencing for FAA approved operators. Then we...

    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    I think once they get all the grids completed from the airports it will be automated approval unless it is outside of the standard altitude limit.

    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    It would be nice if they had an app for the submission. That would be great if it could grab your current position when on site. I've got the Coordinates app for iOS. It is pretty good.

    USA Why not a pilot certificate?

    The airspace authorizations are not going to take 90 days. If you have been keeping up with all that is going on you will know that the FAA is gathering grids around all airports that will set our max allowable altitude. Once that is all received and loaded the airspace authorizations should...

    USA Any one get their 107 Certificate?

    Hey Jim, That is the same as all of us. It will say "pending" online until the final cert is sent.
