Business Plan, Investment, Training and Qualifications

During 2017 I investigated the Who, What, Where, When and Why questions for Drone Technology and I came up with the answers that there is a gap in the market out there that can utilize there use for Aerial Inspections, Surveys & Photography. Where we used the expense of Helicopters, High Ladders, Access Scaffolding, Hydraulic Lifts, Abseil Teams and many more inspection methods. Now with the advancement in Drone Technology, Safety Operations Courses and Company Operations Manuals, Public Liabilities Insurance and the setting out by the Aviation Experts, mainly NATS (National Air Traffic Services) and the CAA (Civil Aviation Authority) the Legal Procedures and Guidelines (CAP 393, 722, 1763) allows safe drone operations which can be completed in a less expensive safe manner, ensuring vast savings for clients.

I gave equal consideration to How and How Much, so I set out an Investment Plan, Business Case and Business Plan, then spent time reviewing Company requirements, Transport and Equipment, Pre Course Training and how to attain CAA Qualifications and the best companies delivering approved NQE Training. After spending a few months of daily flying practice when good weather permitted, I successfully completed my 3 days Course with final day Theory and Practical Exams at NATS (NQE Approved) prestigious Prestwick Airport facility with a full CAA Qualification RPAS/PfCO which is CAA Permissions to Fly Commercial Operations as a Professional Drone Company. Updated 2019/20 Operations Manual approved by the CAA allowing PfCO Certificate #3 issued for 2019/2020
