Besides already having a 107 certificate for a few years, would it help to have a private pilot’s license to help in obtaining a BVLOS waiver? I am considering using a VTOL sUAV ulwith my 107 cert for photographing large tracts of open desert and much of it would be difficult to keep up with a drone of any sort, but there are good overlooks one can see everything from along the way. What have others done to get such a waiver?

I’m not thinking about being a commercial pilot, which I would need in order to photograph aerials for work from a plane, but I was thinking having the practical background knowledge of all the regulations and procedures in depth that pilots do would be helpful.
