Professional well run course
A well presented course which was easy to follow. Instructors provided immediate back up and were quick to respond to email enquiries. The only down point was the difficulty navigating the email system, however, this was discussed with the staff and will be addressed. A great learning experience run by a professional team - well done.

The course has been extremely well designed and easy to follow. Having completed the Pfco back in 2011 it was a refreshing change that I took my time and understood each topic before moving on to the next rather than sitting in a classroom environment for three days.
The end of module questions were of real help. I did have a giggle at being asked to show my forearms prior to taking the final test online.

I think you must be the first student to ever have to show their forearms! Might have been a particularly cautious proctor at our side with suspicions of tattooed exam answers!
It's great to hear you enjoyed the course Colin, many thanks for writing a review.

Fantastic product and support.
Found the company on line. Had flown drones before the first regulations were introduced. Those regs pretty much killed my interest in the hobby.
However, now with the EU regs providing more freedoms I was quick to go for my A2 CofC.
I know that my drone that gives me a period of flight under A2 CofC- but I hope the CAA will retro classify my drone post cut off date.
Now to it- If I've ever had a question these guys respond and super quick, even on New Years Day !!
Can't recommend these guys enough.

Superb Course - Recommend!
The course was excellent from start to end. Although I didn’t need it, support was very obviously on hand should it be required. The course content was insightful and has left me with a renewed confidence when operating my aircraft. I feel that every U.K. UAS operator should be doing this A2CofC course at the bare minimum, prior to flight.
