每一个人 Needs a Drone License

每一个人?

是的每个人都. College students, teenagers, kids and adults all need a license to fly drones.

The Federal Aviation Administration (美国联邦航空局) requires you to have a drone license if you fly. 

一个好消息!

If you are flying for fun this is easy, free and available online from the 美国联邦航空局.

The 美国联邦航空局 calls this The Recreational “无人飞行系统” Safety Test (信任). 

“无人飞行系统” stands for Uncrewed Aircraft Systems which are just fancy words for Drones. The 美国联邦航空局 loves acronyms!
