From checklists and risk assessments to selecting (and employing!) emergency landing sites to the importance of pre-flighting to how (and when!) to safely fly from the seat of your pants this presentation discusses some of the many lessons learned in well over a decade of commercial drone flying. Presented in easy-to-swallow bites, these lessons are easy to take, adapt, and work into your protocols and procedures. These lessons will provide good value for beginners just starting out, as well as seasoned veteran pilots. At the very least, you can learn how to recover from obliterating your drone in front of a client and still complete the project.
