ONLINE PREMIUM: Fernpilotenzeugnis A2 - LBA (EU-Drohnenführerschein)

Online course (self-study)

You receive digital training materials from Pro Fly Center and can work through them conveniently at your own pace. The content was created by subject-matter experts according to EASA and national NAA guidelines. Once you have worked through the material and feel ready for the exam, you can select one of the listed dates and register for the exam. This training is ideal for aspiring pilots who want to learn flexibly while saving costs.

Digital course (especially for companies with groups of 3–12 participants)

For authorities, companies, agencies, clubs, or even a group of friends, we offer this professional form of online learning—which we have successfully conducted many times with our license courses—on a mutually agreed date. Together with an experienced instructor and practitioner, you go through all materials and topics in a 3–4 hour session, have time for questions, and can discuss content in more depth. This is the most convenient format for people who like to learn in a team and with a teacher. Immediately after the course, participants take the exam so they can quickly apply the knowledge they have acquired.

Important note: Since each participant must be examined in an individual session, participants take the exam for the A2 remote pilot certificate immediately after the course or in the following days (by appointment). More information under Exam!
