Part 107 UAS Ground School Sunday, March 3, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
Tere’s no denying that unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) have become a growing part of the industry. For the first time, HAI is offering a Part 107 ground school that prepares attendees to take and pass an FAA Part 107 knowledge test, which enables them to operate small UAS. Previous aeronautical knowledge certainly helps, but this course does not require experience.
Underwater Egress Procedures and EBD Familiarization Monday, March 4, 8:00 AM - 5:00 PM
If your aircraft crashed in water, would you know how to escape? Tis course—held at the Georgia World Congress Center for half the day, and at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis Hotel pool for the other half—provides all personnel working or traveling on or over water with the basic knowledge and skills necessary to egress aircraft in a ditching emergency while deploying
an emergency breathing device (EBD).
