What happens on completion of the Agras course?
Candidates who pass the GVC will be able to apply to the CAA for an Operational Authorisation. They can then work towards an OSC, if required.
Drone Ag will provide candidates with a certificate, proving they are qualified to use the DJI Agras spray drones.
