Running Part 107 cohorts today means stitching a learning platform to a scheduler to a CRM — three subscriptions, three logins, and no single view of who is actually ready for the test.
AeroCopilot gives a drone school one cockpit: a cohort roster, assigned study, per-student exam readiness, and a verifiable completion certificate — with the AI Copilot for every student and practice questions built from live FAA data.
- One cockpit for every cohort — roster, roles, and progress in a single view instead of an LMS, a scheduler, and a CRM stitched together.
- Per-student §107.73 exam readiness across all 13 knowledge areas — see who's ready before you send them to a PSI test center.
- Live Context practice — questions built from real FAA data right now (UAS Facility Map ceilings, active TFRs, live METARs) that no static courseware can copy.
- A full FAA-format mock exam — 60 questions, 120 minutes, 70% to pass (42 of 60) — so readiness is measured, not guessed.
- §107.65 recency tracking that fails closed per student — a warning at 60 days, escalating at 30, critical inside 7.
- Verifiable completion certificates — a tamper-evident SHA-256 seal, issued on behalf of your academy, never an FAA endorsement.
- AI Copilot for every student, with the Pilot plan usage limits, grounded in official FAA/NWS data, never fabricated.
Cohort tools
What a Part 107 school actually needs. Cockpit tools, not a stack of tabs.
Cohort roster
Enroll a class, assign study, set student and instructor roles. One board for the whole cohort — no more gluing an LMS to a scheduler to a CRM.
Per-student readiness
Every student scored across the 13 §107.73 knowledge areas. Know who's ready for the UAG test before they pay the PSI test-center fee.
Live Context practice
Practice questions generated from live FAA data — the current UAS Facility Map ceiling, active TFRs, real METARs. Validated, labeled practice; the differentiator generic courseware can’t replicate.
Recency, fail-closed
Track each student’s §107.65 recency with a 60/30/7-day countdown. Recency is one requirement among registration, Remote ID, airspace, and airworthiness — and we say exactly that.
Verifiable certificates
A completion record issued on behalf of your academy, sealed with a tamper-evident SHA-256 fingerprint — not an FAA endorsement, not e-signed.
AI for every student
AI Copilot included for each billed student, with the Pilot plan usage limits. Grounded in official FAA data — never fabricated.
Day in the life
A cohort day with AeroCopilot. How the platform runs a Part 107 class.
0800 — Cohort board
The dashboard shows this week's Part 107 cohort of 14. A few students sit amber on the §107.73 airspace area; the rest are green.
0900 — Assign study
Push a Live Context set built from a real UAS Facility Map ceiling and today’s active TFRs to the amber students — the data becomes the question.
1100 — Readiness gate
Most students clear the full mock exam (60 Q, 120 min, 70% to pass). Green-light them for the PSI center; hold the rest for one more airspace block.
1300 — Cohort analytics
Cohort analytics show the class progress at a glance. Issue verifiable completion certificates for the students who finished.
1500 — Recency sweep
The §107.65 countdown flags an alumnus approaching the recency window. Nudge them to the free online recurrent training (ALC-677) before recency lapses.
1700 — One invoice
One consolidated invoice at $24.99 per student per month. Instructors, dispatchers and admins are not charged, and the invoice is prorated as students join or leave.
A flight school runs on outcomes, not a stack of tabs
Your reputation rides on pass rates. A student who fails the UAG test costs them a PSI test-center fee and two weeks — and costs you a testimonial. Guessing who’s ready from attendance and a gradebook isn’t a readiness signal.
AeroCopilot was built to show readiness before the test, prove completion after it, and keep the whole cohort on one invoice — so you run the program, not the tooling.
This page covers school cohort operations. For the underlying airspace and compliance tooling itself, see the drone features page.
What we don't do
- Direct LAANC submission to the FAA is not available. The platform gives live airspace intelligence, UAS Facility Map ceiling lookups, and an automatic do-you-need-LAANC check on every mission.
- We import your class roster by CSV (bulk invite). AeroCopilot has no native LMS integrations (LTI/SCORM).
- Live Context questions are practice items validated against live FAA data. They are not official FAA UAG questions and are not a guarantee of a passing score.
- The completion certificate is a tamper-evident course-completion record, not an FAA certificate, endorsement, or authorization — only the FAA issues the Remote Pilot Certificate.

FAQ
Part 107 school FAQ
How do flight schools run Part 107 training?+
Part 107 requires no instructor endorsement — unlike §61.35 for manned ratings. A school runs cohorts, assigns study aligned to the 13 §107.73 knowledge areas, tracks per-student exam readiness, and issues a completion record. The FAA UAG knowledge test itself is taken individually at a PSI test center.
Does teaching a Part 107 course require an instructor endorsement?+
No. Part 107 is a knowledge test plus an application (FAA Form 8710-13 via IACRA) — there is no §61.35 instructor endorsement requirement as there is for manned ratings. A school prepares students and documents completion; the FAA test is taken individually at a PSI center.
What does a Part 107 exam-readiness score measure?+
Readiness is scored across the 13 knowledge areas defined in §107.73 — so instructors can see who's ready before the test rather than after.
What is Live Context and why can't other platforms copy it?+
Live Context generates practice questions from real FAA data right now — the current UAS Facility Map ceiling, active TFRs, and live METARs. The questions are validated practice items, not official FAA UAG questions, built on a live FAA data pipeline that static courseware does not have.
Can students take the Part 107 test through the platform?+
No. The FAA UAG knowledge test is 60 questions, 120 minutes, with a 70% passing score, taken individually at a PSI test center. The platform prepares students, measures readiness, and issues a verifiable completion certificate — it does not administer the FAA test.
How does school billing work?+
The school pays $24.99 per student per month on one consolidated invoice, with a 14-day free trial. Instructors, the chief instructor, dispatchers and admins are not charged, and at least one student is billed. Each student gets the Pilot plan features with the Pilot usage limits. When students join or leave, billing is adjusted pro rata.
