Pilot license to drone

Ok that makes sense. I feel similarly that the restrictions to operate under the exemption seem extreme for what I would be doing which is a major reason why I've decided to wait until the FAA gets their act together. Thanks for clearing up my confusion and best of luck with the rest of the process.

Well, it seems I'm wrong! It appears that I can fly commercially at 200 feet or below! This is great news, as I misunderstood a friend this weekend say that unless you had a pilots license, the blanket COA wouldn't allow for commercial drone use. I applied for exemption about 5 or 6 months ago and finally got it about 4 weeks ago. I thought the entire time I could fly commercially 200 ft or below but when I spoke to my buddy, he meant the 500 ft.
