FAA Safety Team
As a private airplane pilot I have been attending FAAST classes for years.
As commercial drone pilots you can and should attend as well.
You sign up for free at Safer Skies Through Education - FAA - FAASTeam - FAASafety.gov
After you set up your account you can choose from a list of topics you want info on, and some other preferences.
sUAS - Small Umanned Aircraft System is one of the choices.
Then when a class near you or a webinar comes up you will get an email inviting you to it.
Attendance is free, there is generally refreshments.
I went to a sUAS FAAST class a couple months ago on how to file Airspace waivers. Although I had already filed a few, I picked up some great tips, learned a couple things, met some sUAS pilots, and helpped educate a couple of airplane pilots.
Some airplane pilots are a bit resistant to sharing airspace with drones. By showing up and acting professional we can help educate them.
If you are an airplane pilot, or are interested in becoming one, or just curious you should check out the other topics as well. I follow most of them.
Please let me know if you go to, or have gone to and what your experience was like.
