- remotepilot101.com We know that airspace plays such a large roll on the FAA's Part 107 knowledge test. In this quick video I give a summary of each type of airspace and how to identify each on a VFR sectional chart. NOTE: Our promo pricing ended 1/31/17 The current price for life is now $150. Thank you for being one of nearly 10,000 (and growing) of our success stories. - Jason

Jason has does an incredible job putting together his training videos and his training methods really work and I am proof of that. When I decided to get my Certificate back in 2017, I was 67 years old and I passed the test the first time! Believe me when I tell you that you must put in the study time as it is a lot of information to pound into your head. Yes, I watched the Jason's videos many times each and never found it boring or annoying listening to him. His presentations, information and motivational voice keeps the learning process positive all of the time. Whoops, time to go renew my Certificate . . . many how time flies . . .
Great course. I knew absolutely nothing about aviation and in less than a week I pass my FAA part 107 knowledge test. Thanks Jason for the informative course.
good for you, congrats!
Taking my part 107 tomorrow ! wish me luck ! :)
Good luck.
Are you making the BIG bucks now that you're 107 certified?
I very rarely comment on UA-cam videos, but I felt it necessary for this one! I've been studying for my private pilot written test for a while and still struggle with airspace. Sometimes I feel like the FAA made it difficult on purpose lol. I really needed someone to explain it to me in the most concise way possible and you did just that. Thank you! Great teaching skills!
I've just completed my course and now scheduled to take my Part 107 Knowledge Test. I want to thank Jason and the staff at MzeroA, they are who I chose to take the course from. So far I've been averaging 94 to 96% on my practice exams and I feel confident when I go in at the end of this month to take the exam, I have no doubt I'm going to rock this exam. The courses that Jason teaches are easy to understand and very thorough. He breaks everything down to where anyone should be able to understand. I also want to say that I think any drone pilot should take these courses, even if she or he isn't going to take their drone piloting to a commercial level. Just having the knowledge is a huge plus and should keep a lot of people out of trouble.
Excellent instruction and delivery. You keep the viewer interested.
Bro, listened to many tutorials and yours is the first that doesn't put me to sleep, seriously, reading the asa manual and FAA vids put me to sleep. You present exactly what a need to know in an engaging way, awesome presentation. If I don't make it my first go I'll definitely buy your course. Wish I had seen this before I bought the books and scheduled my test.
Finally it's starting to make sense. The difference between E & G were confusing but I think your video made me understand.
For work, I took this course from Jason and Remote Pilot 101 and everything in this course is spot on. I got a 96 on my test and my colleague got a 94. We took three work days to take the course and all of the practice tests, then did all of the practice quiz's and tests one after another, all part of the remotepilot101 course, and took the test at a local airport testing facility. We now have our 107 and are beginning drone operations with an agricultural use. Great course and well worth the price and time.
Great video Jason! You explain airspace very well.
Folks, his full course is a fantastic guide and tool - well worth the investment. Take that from someone that passed the difficult knowledge test (and he's right... there are quite a few questions specifically geared towards airspace knowledge!)
I can't give this program enough props (no pun intended)
You could give an old beat up prop as a token!
Just took mine today (6/21/17) and it was very heavy on sUAS operations with a number of strange questions I had never seen on any practice test. Thank goodness for all the other information Jason provided in his outstanding program. He got me up to speed on everything else!
Did you make a job using the license
JASON. Don't know why I didn't expect that. Used your videos for my commercial, instrument, and private pilot training. Now I'm using them to study for my 107 stuff. Nice.
I just finished Jason's course and got a 91.5 % on my final exam. I felt the course was well done and Jason has been busy gathering research and current Part 107 test questions and information. I can't tell you how valuable that is. As new information becomes available he updates his students with new videos to make sure we have the latest information. Folks this is a rapidly evolving body of knowledge and laws. I don't know about you but I don't have the time to stay up on all the new information and that's why Jason's course is so valuable because he does all this for us! Yes it's $99 but that's for life. If you're serious about making this a business then I highly recommend this course!
Ive gone through the course and I agree it is absolutely amazing. Not only is it educational but the way he presents it makes the material very fun. Pete I haven't yet taken the part 107 test, the paranoia is still there and was wondering if you had any suggestions on if i should use any other supplementation on top of jasons. I scored an 85% on his final exam first time around, will be going through it several more times, but can never be too safe!
I actually just took part 107 test and although I was getting scores in the 90's on Jason's practice exams, I only scored an 83 on the actual Part 107 test. I expected to do better, but I passed! One thing that surprised me was the test was weighed very heavily on airspace and questions related to that. I would suggest you really understand airspace inside and out. good luck!
Ah that's fantastic - great to hear and thank you! :D
I got an 88 on the practice test and a 94 on the actual.
Folks I know nothing about this test. No prior knowledge whatsoever. I just fell in love with drones. Is it feasible to think I could learn this and pass the test pretty quick. I will put the study hours in. Quickly- I’m a 9th grade drop out with a GED and been to 3 different colleges with a Law Enforcement (APOST) certificate from one. studying hard I was still a C student in classes like Anatomy and Physiology. This test looks hard. Heck I can tell it’s hard from comments. I guess I’m asking if an average guy with no prior knowledge could handle this test and if so just roughly how long to prepare? That’s with me studying 4 or 5 hours a day? Many thanks Friends
Highly recommend Jason and the crew here. They are in touch and all hands on deck for you. Very good stuff.
Good to see that Anders from workaholics took up doing drone trainings!
lmfao
that's funny AF I can't take him seriously since you made the connection lol
the Dersss dog
Looking into furthering my knowledge of UA piloting. Great info. Thanks and glad to see someone else wears two watches!
I cant afford your proper courses, but I am 100% sure that between your videos, my ASA books and the Prepware app that I will pass this test! Sectional charts are the thing thats holding me up, you are helping me learn. I appreciate that!
Have you taken the test yet ? It’s 2 years since your post . Would love to hear your experience
Just one quick tip for any presenter, Increase the size of your mouse pointer so people can follow you easier on a complex image. "Size does matter"
I was able to see the mouse just fine
The Void Fill on a phone you can’t see shit
Yes It was hard to follow at 1st
I'm taking the private pilot course right now, this really helps me a lot.
I have a stage check coming up in my flight program and class airspace is going to be on the oral portion. this video gave me a really good understanding about the reading the chart and understanding the class airspace’s
Great video Jason! Keep it up!
I found this video very helpful in studying for my part 107. You are a fantastic instructor and are able to take a very bland subject and make it fun and interesting.
This convinced me to sign up for the Recurrent Lifetime Course. I wasn't aware I could submit tickets and get on a live chat. This will be valuable for me. Thank you....and heading over to your site now to give you some cash.
You implied (and I think outright said at about 07:25) that permission is required to fly in Class E airspace. However, it is my impression that *no permission or communication is required of VFR pilots in Class E airspace* ...but visibility and perhaps minimum distances from clouds are different. Am I wrong?
Fantastic Video. Really helped me grok the Cl E vs Cl G airspace where other tutorials have failed. Thank you. Great tutorial!
I passed the exam today!!!
Thank you Jason for your guidance and training to enable me to pass the exam on my first try.
As you can tell from the above video, Jason does an excellent job at explaining the subject matter. If you take the time and put in the effort to learn and understand the lessons in his course, then you should be able to pass the exam as well.
Jason is absolutely correct about how much weight is put on airspace, charts and weather. He teaches all this and more so tht you will have a solid and confident understanding of everything covered on the exam.
More importantly, you will understand how important safety is when you are planning and piloting your flights. Jason will also provide you with other resources to help you get the information you need before you take flight.
Thanks again Jason.
Did you study the book/PDF also or was this course enough to pass?
I only used the course.
I took the practice tests through all the lessons and also took the practice exam at the end several times. I always received 90% or over and then day before my exam at the airport I took it 3 more times scoring 98% twice and 100% once.
The next day I took the exam scoring 82%. The exam isn't light hearted. When I took the exam, I was given 63 questions, not the standard 60. The examiner told me they randomly select people to give them test questions to see how they work out. I guess I was a lucky contestant, hahaha. The extra 3 questions do not affect your score. Your test score is still based on 60 questions. However, it is still like having a 63 question exam, because you have no idea which 3 are the test questions.
I recommend this course, but before you go for the real exam, take the practice exam a lot. Also find other exams to practice with and REALLY learn the charts and weather from this course. Jason is a great teacher and it is easy to learn from him. However, I suggest Jason cover the airspace a bit more.
jr o, I took the course and went from knowing absolutely nothing about aviation and in less than a week I pass my FAA part 107 knowledge test. I only studied the remotepilot101.com course. If you pay attention and take good notes you should have no problem. I finished the course in about 3 days and took my test the next day reviewing my notes for about an hour before the test and Pass.
Thank you for the response. I'm in the same boat about aviation lol. The off I downloaded made it look very difficult and from what I seen on here makes it seem alot easier to comprehend. Thanks again and congrats on passing
Not an easy test but if you pay attention and take the test while the info is fresh in your mind it should not be that hard. Use the reference book provided the images are way better than on the computer screen. Just a few tips. Know your airspace and be able to find a point on the sectional chart using longitude and latitude down to minuets. Become familiar with the abbreviations on charts and know how to read metars and tafs. Then there will be some operational questions that are almost common sense. Just commit to memory everything Jason tells you to.
you do explain very clearly!! thank you for your help, I'm taking my Part 107 in about a month but airspace is still the hardest for me, and TAFs to an extent :)
ooo im taking it this weekend :D. how was it?
@@andrechelle it’s pretty easy if you know your airspace and private pilot knowledge! :)
Great presentation. After looking at a 1980s sectional I still have, things look similar but this is because my brain is still stuck in 1980s airspace. Seriously, markings are similar, its just airspace has become considerably more crowded and more restricted since I last played PIC in 1982. More Class B circles and greater area coverage etc...and other similar changes around populated areas.
I'm taking a class on this right now and this guy explained echo and gulf airspace better than my instructor, lol. Thanks!
just took my test and did really good! This helped because a lot of sectional chart stuff was on the test. Metars, only had about 4.
Made echo and golf make perfect sense. Thank you!
this is a great company and a very good class, the have someone online to chat with while you view the courses , very very helpful
I self studied and passed just fine, I got the Drone U Part 107 Study guide from my local library. You do have to study but i don't think you need to spend this kind of money to pass. Just a thought for anyone on the fence. Get every practice test you can, study the areas where you fail the most, when you start to pass them you will know that you are ready.
This added much value and cleared up some confusion I had
I studied for one hour (watched the UA-cam video that’s 1:19) and went to meacham airport and passed the remote pilot certification.
It CAN be done. However, I pick things up EXTREMELY fast. A lot of it is common sense minus the airspace stuff which is quite hard to understand. I highly suggest reading up on LAWS and AIRSPACE. With those two study groups you should have no issues passing.
I just passed my 107 sUAS Test with an 83. Thank you for all the info your site has on it… and yes there are many tuff questions on it.
Good Brief. Thank you.
FAA is getting faster on some occasions. I got an Authorization for a Class C Airspace in less than a week. I gave an exact time frame, address and company name at that location. Kept it at 250 agl. It was even just two blocks away from the tower.
You are the best of all!!
Best airspace tutorial I’ve seen. I will sign up for the full course!
Thanks Jason
Great video
Very good teaching style. Question: I have a private pilot certificate since 1976 which was updated in 2011 to the new format (no SS #). Do I need to get a 107 cert in addition? I had heard that I was good with a private and current BFR. - Thanks
Enjoyed the video and went to website where prices start at $150, up from time this video was made. Any discount code to bring it down to $100?
@RemotePilot101 when you were explaining class E and class G airspace, how would I deter either one are in MSL or AGL?
Super video.
do i need ATC authorization to fly in the orlando 19/09 airspace? im flying below the floor of that airspace at 400ft.
I completed remotepilot101 and tested today…83%
I finally understand thanks !!!
Operations, in that context, refers to the practical application of knowledge about airspace etc.
Excellent. !!!
So can I fly my drone 1 mile away from Cooperstown airport while keeping it under 400 feet
He's so good at sharing. Makes me feel like I'm back in the 2nd grade! Haha
I'm currently studying to get FAA 107 unmanned aircrafte certified in the expectation that my law enforcement organization will eventually use unmanned aircraft. What waivers will I need as an individual not covered under my organization's COA? I'd like to be able to use my license for commercial purposes as well as governmental purposes. I definitely plan on signing up for your course.
You stated in the video that the your service is on sale for $99, but when I go to the website it's $149. Will there be another sale soon?
Very helpful!
Is the uas knlwledge test is the teotrerical test for ppl?
Do you reply to comments/questions?
I’m trying to make sure before I take the test. I have all the correct answers on all my practice test besides 3 questions. And it’s because I chose an altitude in MSL instead of AGL or visa versa. When do I refer to which? Do I keep saying AGL until I’m above and not including 700 AGL? 🤔
OK so this example is almost exactly what I was going to ask you about here in Dallas Class B. So the inner ring is SFC/110, the second shelf is 25/110, the third is 30/110, the fourth is 40/110.
My question is they all have blue solid circles going out many many miles. I thought we could fly as long as we are 5 miles from the airport. The outer rings extend out a whopping 34 miles. Are we not allowed to fly under any of the shelves, or do we just have to not fly where it says SFC ??
Nice video ...
Any courses on heavy lifters?
Looks like a great course. I'm considering taking the test, but I am a licensed private pilot. I am not current with my BFR and would need to invest more money to get current than it would cost to take the test. I have one question that I can not find the answer to - If I am near an uncontrolled airport in class E airspace, I know the class e airspace starts at 700 AGL, but isn't there some other level of controlled airspace to the surface 5 miles out from the center of the airport ?? I believe there was an ATA (airport traffic area) 5 miles out ?
I think that is Class B airspace (airports, etc.). You have to get prior ATC permission to fly inside the 5nm range. I used 1800wxbrief to file.
Hi - your program looks great, but I have a single question: this (fairly recent) UA-cam video states the training program is only $99... but when i visit the website I see the price is now jacked-up to $149... a bit annoying. Which is the right price? No one likes to feel like they were baited-and-switched, and i already plunked down $150 just to register for the 14CFRpart107 exam itself :-( .
Please reply with clarification - thanks !
at 9:29 / 9:35 on this video you do indeed say this course is $99.00. Can't make it any clearer than that. Bait and switch? You need to correct the discrepancy and honor the $99.00 price.. I too went to the website and it is clearly listed as $149.00 for the course. Are you going to honor the stated price? the great thing about videos and pictures is they rarely lie. Integrity my friend, Integrity...
Well would a government apparently requires people that go through courses or classes in order to fly model aircraft 1 they have overstep their boundaries and 2 people who are offering products geared towards Preparing People for that can now charge more because it's pretty much mandated so once again government makes things more expensive and now that it's mandated there will be a increase in the amount of people with the increase in demand for his product he can sell it for more, so not only is the FAA ruining the hobby of model Aviation they are also making things more expensive for people in general.
@@metalfox1911a1 Disagree. When you have a bunch of kids flying drones where aircraft takeoff and land the consequences can be catastrophic. This is why you need regulations.
A big question that I have that no body seems to talk about is what are the blue or magenta lines with the hash marks? I hear talk about solid or dotted lines but never the ones with the solid circle with the hash marks inside of it like the tick marks on a clock (but finer and more of them).
nice video,
Does the faded magenta circle (class E airspace) always denote that it starts at 700 ft?
Yes. The only time class E go's lower is with dotted magenta lines. And that is class E to the ground.
Much appreciated advice here, sectional charts suck!!
Thank you
(c) Over other than congested areas - An altitude of 500 feet above the surface except over open water or sparsely populated areas. In that case, the aircraft may not be operated closer than 500 feet to any person, vessel, vehicle, or structure.
If your operating a manned aircraft, do you have to go get permission to fly in any airspace besides Class B?
thanks, we need a video which show how one can legally fly using airmap app or anyother refrence material..no one on youtube have evermade it todate 12/8/17.
I enrolled with the pilot institute and the teacher is very hard to follow , I already like your style of teaching.
What does the blank parts (non colored mean? Can they fly over that?
How and when will you be addressing the latest changes to FAA control? The 1200 page ,probably unread , proposal that recently made vote?
Looking for a provider to direct those I interact with who are interested in pursuing licensing (as I don't provide such training). "Great" intro on airspace! Well done.
Hi, so you said it is $99 and the site says $149, which is the actual price? thanks
one of the better explaination flows ive seen yet. thanks in advance, I know I'll pass now
Can you explain to me why I’m allowed to be 400 feet above the obstacle cause I’m not seeing why Im allowed go over a 250agl tower with the tip of it ending in 1500 msl. I’m so lost
Id actually buy this training, but trying to keep track of your microscopic size mouse Pointer, so I know what youre talking about is neary impossible...?
well that's a moron statement, the exact position of the mouse doesn't matter, he is showing a overall area! you obviously have no clue to the charts whatsoever I imagine it will take years for you to pass the test!
I briefly checked out your webpage. Very interested. I’m also extremely impressed with your accomplishments. If I join and have a question, will I contact one of your reps via chat? Also I have several questions I need to ask about the class before I join. Can your company be reached by phone for that? I failed to see any way to contact you. I probably looked right over it. Thank You for your time and look forward to hearing back from you...
very unlikely someone will reply via youtube. on social media (Facebook) or website is much more likely. keep digging or leave similar comment on their social media posts
BullseyeMediaKS Thank You..
Hey, Jason! I just bought a drone and am now considering which "107" course I should take. In this video, you say the course is 99 bucks but on your website, it says $149. What gives? Looks like others in this thread have the same issue.
Your explanation about the difference between uncontrolled airspace (Class G) and controlled airspace (Class E, above 700' AGL or 1,200 AGL) is confusing as you imply you need clearance to fly in Class E controlled airspace. This is incorrect if you do not enter Class A, B, C or D airspace. This difference between Class G and Class E has to do with minimum weather limitations and cloud clearance requirements that must be adhered to when you are flying.
7:32 is confusing, you say permission is needed to be in class echo, but I think this is only necessary if you fly IFR, not in VFR. Could you clarify this point? Thanks
That's not what he said. He said you would need to obtain permission at 700' which begins the class Echo airspace.
You imply that prior permission is required to operate in class E airspace, however the FAA remote pilot study guide states "In most cases, a remote pilot will not need ATC authorization to operate in Class E airspace." So is prior authorization required or not?
A CHART WILL BE ELECTRONICALLY GIVEN TO YOU BY THE ACC-READ THE NOTAMS BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE AIRPORT ON THE NOTICES TO AIRMEN INPUT IN REGULATIONS AND POLICY. FAA.GOV\REGULATIONS\NOTAMS. THERE IS A COMPUTER IN THE AIRPLANE WHERE YOU TYPE IN THE PTS OR PRACTICAL TEST STANDARDS.
From what I understand you do not need a clearance or permission to enter, fly or operate in class E airspace unless the pilot wants to fly IFR or weather conditions are less than minimum for VFR flight.
Does echo always start at 700ft inside the faded magenta circle and always start at 1200ft outside of it? There's no indicator for specific altitude so I'm assuming thats just the standard?
I have the exact same question...
Red dash class e to the surface. Class e Within a red shaded area starts at 700. Class e otherwise will start at 1200
Will, just like Enerst said and yes is class E is everywhere is not any other space and it goes up to 17,999. 18k class A
Yes. Adding to what the others said, there are some exceptions in remote areas out west and in Alaska where Class E starts at 14,500 MSL. Also along the coasts over international waters, Class E has several shelves at various altitudes. These are marked on the chart as blue "zippered" lines.
You mean magenta, not red. I know they look vaguely similar, but magenta is not red. It's used so that symbols and lines can be seen in the red cockpit lights at night. Same as for boats and ships.
Thanks bro
What's with the difference in the price? You stated that the course is $99, and when i went to the site it says $149
I was always told I could not be pilot because of color blindness, Will that effect my real estate photography drone license? Great info as always!
No. And depending on what form of colorblindness you have, you might still be able to be a private pilot.
How much is the course??
As I'm just starting to look into this. My first question is, once I've learned to read these charts, where do I get them from?
I use Skyvector.com. I hope this helped.
Burnadizzle Thank you, that's very helpful. It's amazing how I've been asking for weeks and finally got an answer.
@@3DJapan Weeks? It takes only a few seconds to Google the answer.
ENGLISH AS A LANGUAGE REQUIREMENT, IT IS AN FEDERAL FAA ADVISORY CIRCULAR WE DO.
Sir, your website says complete course $149, you said on this video $99, am I missing something?
you want to get a faa drone permit for flying yet failed to look at the sate on this video being 6 YEARS AGO
I thought that Class E is controlled airspace, but actually more accurately "controllable" airspace in that communication with ATC is optional.
BLUE IS CLASS BRAVO
If the controller says aircraft calling class c stand by you can't enter if he replies with your Number you can enter regulation says comunacation established prior to entry, like class D you have established comuacation Clarence to enter is not required.
I got an 89 percent using study guides. I remember walking into the room and there was another student taking his test and he was already there for about an hour. I walked out 20 mins later. So I would say for some people that would be false. You can pass the test just readying study guides alone.
07:34 I'm very new to this but the way I read things today I think his statement that you'd penetrate class E airspace by inspecting the tower is not correct. Please help me if I'm wrong. Here's my logic as to why inspecting that tower near Cooperstown does not penetrate class E airspace, First, I think he was looking at the fact that the tower is 1708 MSL, but in reality it's only 250 AGL (the number in parenthesis next to the obstruction) in fact Cooperstown itself is 1424 MSL and the fact that they use the single icon for the obstruction itself means that it's under 1000 AGL. You're allowed 400' on top of a structure if you're within 400' off the edge of that structure (although if it has guy wires then the suggestion is that you fly 2000 feet away from it, but I digress), so that would mean your drone could reach 250 (top of structure) + 400 = 650 AGL which is under the 700 AGL floor of the class E airspace. E's floors are AGL. Anyway, I've been prepping too long for this test, but could someone please let me know if my logic is correct, or where I'm off if it is not? Thanks!
Were does it say it starts at 700 feet?
