OTHER CERTS
Visual Observer (VO) or On-Site Communicator (OSC)
MyDrone.Pro uses only the best and most experienced VO or OSC to ensure a safe and successful non-waivered or waivered flights–My Wife. Depending on the flight mission, a VO is crew member–at times optional, at times required–who serves as a second set of eyes, monitoring the drone in flight in order to support the Remote Pilot in Command (PIC). The OSC is a direct participant in the operation of the small unmanned aircraft, and is on-site and performing duties as described below anytime the UAS waiver is activated and authorized to operate or operating—until the TSA/FAA has been notified that flight operations are terminated. The OSC contacts the TSA-NCRCC at the beginning and end of waivered UAS flight operations, and anytime the identified OSC and/or contact telephone number changes.
