This regulatory area addresses the training, licensing and ongoing competency for everyone involved in RPAS and AAM operations. This includes:
- remote pilot accreditation
- remote pilot training and licensing
- AAM pilot training and licensing
- AAM aircraft supervisor training and licensing
- non-certified and certified RPAS maintenance staff training and licensing
- cabin crew
- training organisations
- instructor/examiner training and licensing
- encouraging diversity and inclusion in the talent pool.
What we want to achieve
We aim to improve the regulatory requirements for training, licensing and ongoing competency for all roles in commercial and non-commercial RPAS and AAM operations. Guided by ICAO and other aviation safety regulators, this may include licencing and training pathways that help transition people between traditional aviation roles and RPAS and AAM operations.
