Organization of Part 107 and AC 107-2A

In plain language

This section explains that the FAA regulates small UAS by looking at three distinct areas: the pilot (personnel), the drone (equipment), and how you fly (operations). This Advisory Circular is organized to match those categories.

Requirement as structured
