This chapter reviews the licensure and documentation important to operating a drone for commercial use. It details the legal requirements, the gray areas, and the common sense practices for using drones in professional settings. To fly a drone commercially, one must adhere to the Small Unmanned Aircraft Rule, also known as 14 CFR Part 107, or just Part 107. Airspace authorizations have been prioritized by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), and they have created the Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC) system. In addition to the FAA rules, many states, agencies, counties, and cities have tried to implement their own drone use rules. In many instances getting both LAANC and DJI permissions to unlock an area can be done in under an hour. To fly a drone commercially, the FAA does not require liability insurance. Even though it's not required, it's tough to imagine why a professional drone user would not purchase liability insurance.
