Certified to fly it. Insured to be there.
Every flight we run is a legal commercial operation under FAA Part 107, flown by a certified remote pilot and backed by insurance. On a job site, that is not a nice-to-have.
FAA Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate
Part 107 is the FAA rule that makes commercial drone flight legal in the United States. Holding the certificate means passing the FAA aeronautical knowledge exam on airspace classification, weather, loading and performance, emergency procedures, and the regulations governing where and when a small unmanned aircraft may operate.
It also carries an ongoing obligation: recurrent training to keep the certificate current, and responsibility for every flight decision made on your site.
Fully Insured Operations
We carry insurance on our operations, and we are used to the paperwork side of working on commercial and construction sites. If your GC, property manager or risk department needs a certificate of insurance before we are allowed through the gate, just ask and we will get it over to them.
Uninsured operators are common in this industry and cheap for a reason. If something goes wrong on your site, the exposure does not stay with the pilot.
What certification actually buys you
Not a badge for a website footer. Four practical differences that show up on real projects.
The flight is legal
Commercial aerial work without a Part 107 certificate is not a gray area. It is a violation.
You get through the gate
Most GCs and property managers require proof of certification and insurance before anyone flies.
The imagery holds up
Documentation used in a draw package, a claim or a dispute is worth more when the flight was lawful and insured.
The exposure is not yours
An uninsured operator on your site is a risk you inherit. Ours is covered, and we are happy to prove it.
What we do before the aircraft leaves the case
Every job runs through the same checks, whether it is a half-acre listing or a multi-visit commercial build.
- Airspace checked before every flight, with authorization requested where controlled airspace requires it
- Weather and wind assessed against the aircraft operating limits, not just the forecast
- Pre-flight aircraft inspection, battery checks and firmware verification
- Launch and recovery zones agreed with your site contact, clear of crews and equipment
- Flight paths planned to avoid operating equipment and non-participating people
- Visual line of sight maintained throughout, in line with Part 107 requirements
- Early-morning, twilight and night work flown in accordance with Part 107 night operation rules
- Certificate of insurance provided to your GC or property manager on request
Legal, safety and insurance
Not legally. Flying a drone for any commercial purpose, including photos used to market a property or document a build, requires an FAA Part 107 remote pilot certificate. Recreational rules do not cover work you are being paid for, or imagery a business uses.
We always want the property owner or site manager permission, and we coordinate access and launch points with your contact before arriving. Airspace itself is regulated federally, but site access, safety and courtesy are handled with you directly.
Central Florida has a lot of controlled airspace, and plenty of sites sit inside it. We check the airspace for every location and request authorization where it is required. Occasionally that changes the altitude we can use. We will tell you before the shoot, not after.
Yes. Tell us who needs it and we will send it across. This is routine for us on commercial and construction work, so it will not hold up your schedule.
Almost never. We plan launch and recovery away from active work, fly around operating equipment rather than over it, and most site shoots are done inside 30 to 45 minutes.
