History and evidence
The archive shows how drone training grew from workshop experiments into field discipline.
These images document real people, equipment and sessions. They are presented as historical evidence, not as a claim that an older course or certificate replaces current requirements.
2009–2012
Building, testing and learning before drones became shelf products.
Early FAE work combined airframes, electronics, radio links, batteries and mission planning. Each failure made the next checklist more precise.
Training community
Students, universities, organisations and enthusiasts learned together.
Demonstrations and small groups connected theory with controls, equipment and field decisions. The human context remains central to the relaunched school.
2026 relaunch
Historical material supports a modern learning route.
The current programme keeps the practical culture while updating the structure around current categories, geographic zones, maintenance and professional applications.
