Pilots may face excited onlookers asking repetitive questions. The PA is responsible for keeping the Pilot clear
of distractions and communicate to onlookers that any questions will be answered upon the completion of the
flight. Every minute counts.
The PA is also responsible for ensuring the hose does not snag on any objects during flight. The PA will be
responsible for moving the hose to ensure it doesn’t get stuck on bushes, trees, gutters or any other foreign
objects that may inhibit the safety of the flight.
The pilot assistant should never stand directly beneath the drone. PA should
maintain a safe distance from the aircraft while in flight.
Crew
Oftentimes, large scale operations may require additional crew members. Collectively, the LCP,PA and any
additional crew members are referred to as the “Crew.”
If the operation dictates a need for additional crew, setup standard forms of communication to ensure effective
communication while in flight. Crew Members should be briefed prior to operation. Crew members should
know their roles and responsibilities and hierarchy in the operation.
