Agricultural drone pilot training, class 32

A full day of learning about spraying drones that was not just sitting and listening: every trainee saw the real equipment, held a real remote controller and practised flying for real with an instructor standing right beside them. Here are all the moments, from the classroom and the flight training ground to receiving certificates and the smiles after the course. Thank you to everyone who joined the Kaset Gen-Y pilot family, class 32.
