Courses Required
AVT 1055 – Unmanned Aircraft Systems Flight Training
Introduces and develops flight control and piloting techniques for common UAS platforms. Students will learn and demonstrate maneuvers, procedures, and best practices for safe UAS operation on fixed wing and rotary wing unmanned aircraft systems (drones).
AVT 1056 – Aviation Concepts for UAS Pilots
Develops the skills and knowledge required to be a pilot of a UAS in the National Airspace System. Students who are new to aviation will develop functional knowledge in the areas of pilot-in-command responsibilities, aerodynamic principles, aviation meteorology, and the flight environment.
AVT 2055 – Unmanned Aircraft Systems Ground School
Demonstrates readiness for the UAS Operator written test. Regulations pertaining to UAS operations will be introduced, including airspace, weather, and flight parameter limitations. The student will also demonstrate knowledge of UAS components and systems, maintenance, autonomy, ground stations, and telemetry.
AVT 2056 – Unmanned Aircraft Systems Commercial Applications
Explains the wide variety of commercial applications of Unmanned Aircraft Systems and operating procedures to ensure a safe outcome for executing such applications. Students will model commercial scenarios to learn about Geographic Information Systems, aerial imaging and survey techniques, multispectral and LIDAR systems, agriculture, and other UAS mission types.
