Things are moving quickly now so the countdown to start of trading is well and truly on! My PfCO certificate has arrived back from the CAA, I have insurance in place and my business plan is complete and has been signed off.
So over the last couple of months I have been working to set up my aerial photography, cinematography and inspection company Ahead4Heights. Progress to date includes passing my PFCO theory exam and creating my operations manual, which will be sent to the Civil Aviation Authority along with my pass certificate and a statement of recommendation from my flight assessment (which I will be taking early next month).
I have also been putting many hours in flying the drones and getting my skills up to the required level and have been fortunate enough to purchase a professional high end drone the DJI Inspire 2.
