For those interested in taking the FAA written part 107 Small UAS drone flight exam. I will travel from the United States and be in the Bahamas for two days. I am going to be focused on the paper and lecture portion of training and do not intend to do any flight training on this trip. The classroom-based training is preparation for the written exam required to obtain your US FAA Part 107 Unmanned Remote Pilots license. You will have to schedule a visit to a US testing facility at a future date to take the written exam. Which is ~$ 180 USD as well, payable to the testing service.
The two-day class is 9-5 on the first day (Saturday) and 9-3 on the Second Day Sunday. On day one, we will go over most, if not all, of the written materials. Then, on the second day, we will finish doing the written materials and take group practice exams. With lectures discussing the answers to each question.
After these two days, you will have a solid foundation for the test, but you will still have to do some self-study before the test. Some students decide to purchase additional Test Prep Software to practice before the test, and this is encouraged, the software is approximately $50 USD
Class Location:

Message Desmondo for more location information as he will be coordinating in the islands the location +1.242.458.7652
---- Only 15 seats are open at this time, with a minimum of 10 to hold the class.------------------- We will make a Decision no later than July 1st if we need to cancel due to low enrollment, do to travel costs.
In order to make this timeline work, as there is a lot of information in a short time, we will start promptly at 9 a.m. on Saturday and conclude at 5 p.m. or later. Then, on Sunday, we will start at 9 a.m. and go until approximately 3 p.m. so I can catch the last flight out that day…
We will have a working lunch and encourage everyone to bring lunch, as it will not be provided, to save costs. If we have to break for lunch, we may not get through all the materials.
*** AGAIN, The Class fee also Does not include the Testing Fee payable directly to the FAA Testing Service***, which is in the UNITED STATES and will require travel to Ft. Lauderdale or another city in the United States.
The schedule is both Sat 9am-5pm and Sunday, 9am-3pm(No break for lunch)
This information will be quickly reviewed and will be an all-day 9-3 Discussion style format. You will need to study more at home before taking the test. But you will confidently know what to and how to study for the test.
To be best ready for the class on the day of, please:

Once you have completed the test prep, you must apply for your IACRA “FTN” number. You can sign up for the written test on the PSI website or at a local testing center.
You will also need to bring 2 forms of ID with mailing an address on them.
To get the FTN go to "https://iacra.faa.gov/IACRA/Default.aspx." Then go to PSI to schedule the test. You will need to make arrangements online and pay them for the exam. The link is- "https://faa.psiexams.com/FAA/login" This fee is approximately $180 and paid directly to the testing company.
Sadly it must also be stated that if you sign up for a class and are late, or do not show up for any reason. Refunds cannot be issued, as we have made accommodations and have already paid for the facility and instructors.
