Arizona Public Sector Drone Day Details

  • Date: Wednesday, Oct. 28
  • Time: 9 a.m. - 4:30 p.m.

Foreign drone rules are changing, fleets need a plan and training standards are rising. Attend this hands-on, one-day event to learn how to get ahead of it, and leave with a long-term training partner for Valley agencies.

Spend the morning assessing where your program stands and getting clear answers on the foreign drone question and NDAA-compliant platforms. Spend the afternoon in the flight cage, putting those platforms, thermal techniques and DFR planning into practice.
