During the course, students will be given the option to take the Federal Aviation Administration’s (FAA) Part 107 Remote Pilot examination to become certified as a commercial drone pilot. Additionally, as part of a multi-step certification process, students will be fully prepared to take the FAA’s Private Pilot knowledge written examination.  \n(Year-2) Returning STA Aerospace Academy students will expand their understanding of aviation by being prepared to take the FAA’s Instrument and Commercial Pilot Knowledge written examinations. Second year students will go beyond basic UAS operations and learn advanced applications such as orthomosaic & LiDAR mapping, volumetric measuring, aerial infrastructure inspections, and thermal imaging.  \nINSTRUCTIONAL PHILOSOPHY: This course is based on a series of activities, projects and hands-on training that will build and reinforce the student’s knowledge of aviation systems, terminology, history and regulations. Students will employ equipment developed for and utilized by professionals within the aerospace industry. The class is designed to prepare students in a sequential process that builds upon previous lessons. Since the coursework is at the collegiate-level and focuses on current industry standards, professional conduct at all times is required.  \nESSENTIAL STANDARDS:  \n1. Summarize the basic principles of flight.  \n2. Define common aviation terminology, definitions, and acronyms.  \n3. Recall and utilize basic flight systems, instruments, software and components of unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) and conventional aircraft.  \n4. Identify significant historical aviation milestones and industry trends.  \n5. Describe the aviation industry structure, including the role of air carriers, general aviation, corporate aviation and military operations.  \n6. Ability to recognize and understand differences between propulsion systems and fuel types.  \n7. Interpret basic weather principles and their impact of aviation operations.  \n8. Apply the basic principles of navigation, aeronautical chart interpretation, and airport symbology.  \n9. Conduct basic aircraft flight maneuvers utilizing flight simulators.  \n10. Plan a cross-country flight utilizing weather forecasts, weight and balance calculations, navigation equipment and aircraft communication radios.  \n11. Plan, execute and process information obtained from various UAS missions flown.  \n12. Develop an understanding of current FAA regulations and regulatory authority.  \nASSESSMENT PLAN: Daily and weekly formative assessments will be used to identify whether students are attaining the essential learning targets on a regular basis. Quizzes, skill exams, student group presentations and knowledge exams will be utilized to prepare students for FAA examinations. Summative assessments will be given at the end of each Aerospace Academy sub-course that shows achievement of the essential standards and concepts accomplished.  \nDUAL CREDIT OPPORTUNITIES: Offered to eligible students according to Coordinating Board of Higher Education.
