In other news... today I passed my FAA Part 107 UAS Recurrent training and exam, which means I can fly drones for money now for another 24 months.
@paxterrarum I thought about getting certified to fly drones commercially a few years back. How much time did you spend getting the initial certification?

@MakerWerks The initial certification takes serious study. I tried to study on my own, and realized the error of my ways and paid for the course from remotepilot101. Excellent course! I passed the exam at a testing center at the local airport on the first try after taking the course. I studied in the evenings for a couple of weeks, then scheduled the exam. Pay for a course. Much easier that way.
@paxterrarum Thanks, that was kinda my path. I tried studying on my own and was overwhelmed after a little while. I thought about a course, but I already own and run a small business to make a living and really couldn't justify the investment of time/money. I am now old enough to start thinking about what I'd like to do in my 'after retirement' career.
