Australian Aviation meets drone training school Aviassist
While 2020 was a challenging year for traditional aviation, COVID encouraged many airline pilots to transfer to flying drones, while governments began to embrace the burgeoning UAV revolution. In this special episode of the Australian Aviation Podcast, host Adam Thorn speaks to Ross Anderson and Rowan Kimber from leading drone training centre Aviassist. The panel discusses the raw skills required to make the transition, the unique challenge of flying beyond the line of sight and how the space is evolving. Finally, the team debates how the world of manned and remotely piloted aircraft will co-exist and amalgamate in future – can we really remove the people in the cockpit?
