Very satisfied customer - Chris is very helpful and is always there to offer support if you get stuck. The versatility of the course itself is second to none! It can be done anywhere, even using the app on your phone!

I looked around at various PfCO/GVC courses, decided on Airborne Platforms UK which was a great decision.. The course is very comprehensive and the support from Chris Marshall, Denis Stretton and Mick Wass has been 1st Class, I cannot recommend highly enough..

Impressed from the start by Airborne platforms instructors knowing their stuff. Not overselling anything and simply getting the job done. Some excellent seminars and a great drone course with 'easy to gauge how you are doing' short tests after each module. Very speedy and personal responses to questions and a great crowd of fellow students that I was able to engage with as i worked through the courses. Highly recommend these guys as a new GVC and A2cofC qualified pilot.

From day 1 right through to the end the support from Chris and the team was outstanding. The whole course was very well structured and the guys were at the end of the phone to answer any questions. It has been an absolute pleasure working with these guys and I truly believe that I chose the right organisation to train with. I would highly recommend them for anyone wishing to gain qualifications and experience in the drone industry.

If you fly a drone, then you are a pilot and pilots keep people safe, but does your hobby pilot knowledge match your level of competency? Do you fly in a bubble or a cylinder, know your angle of attack, or your aircrafts terminal velocity vs its kinetic energy, or your isobars from your millibars? You soon will. This course is the go-to place to move on from being a well-meaning but probably reckless hobbyist flyer, to a professionally pilot licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority. The support throughout this qualification was second to none, Chris and the team take you at your own pace from zero to hero, and nothing was ever too much trouble for them. If you are prepared to work towards the ultimate goal of getting your own CAA permissions and piloting a drone for aerial photography, video, surveying or running your own business then you need the permissions from the CAA to be allowed to fly that bit closer for your client. The hobbyists drone code gets you airborne, but the CAA will never allow hobbyists to fly close enough, until you can prove that you are a competent pilot. This course does just that, it's fun, interesting and full of the pilot stuff needed to get those first CAA permissions and rightly so, but it is 100% achievable with the support that Airborne Platforms U.K. will give you. I passed with these guys and received my CAA permissions within days of completing my final exam and flight test. I have already come back to enrol again and learn more. Top course, top team and top support. Highly recommended.

Airborne is a very dedicated no-nonsense training provider, who doesn't only give you all the information and support you need to become a licensed drone pilot, it also promotes a mindset of flying safe and responsibly. Despite being an online course, the weekly zoom video calls also create a sense of community. Highly recommendable to aspiring serious and responsible drone pilots.

Excellent course material supported by a fantastic team throughout. The online meetings are a valuable resource that I am grateful for up to date changes in the regulations as well as answers to any questions regarding the courses. The ongoing support from Chris Marshall, Dennis Stretton and Mick Wass, (not forgetting Joanna Seymour) has and will continue to be invaluable.

Thank you for a great course. Great presentation style with lots of opportunities to ask questions and talk about real life examples which all made for a really enjoyable and informative course experience. This has more than met my expectations, resulting in achieving my GVC and the CAA granting my Permission for Commercial Operations. The whole team are devoted in going the extra mile to instil the knowledge and skills required to operate at the highest level. I cannot rate the team at Airborne Platforms UK highly enough, if I could award 10 stars I would not hesitate! They truly go beyond!

We were looking for aerial training for staff and spoke to several companies. However after a quick chat on phone with Chris we knew Airborne Platforms was the right choice. The course, knowledge, resources and support was second to none. There’s no doubt Airborne is one of the best UAV training providers around and I would highly recommend.

If you want a top professional company to do your PfCO/GVC, Airborne is the company to go with. Top instruction with lots of help and support, Chris really knows his stuff and is always on hand if you need any help. What I also liked is not just the quality of the tuition but also the additional resources made available throughout. The flight testing is tough but I thoroughly enjoyed it, would not have wanted anything else, so you know if you pass with Airborne you are safe and deemed competent. 5 stars but more if I could, thanks to the team, a big thanks to Chris as I am now fully qualified.

Took me from knowing nothing and never having ever flown a drone before to qualifying me for PFCO within 3 months. I have now added this to my wedding package portfolio and it has raised the levels that I am capable of delivering. Nothing was too much trouble and support was always just a phone call away. Hugely competitivtly priced and an exemplary service. Put the hard work in and Airborne Platforms will support you every step of the way.

Chris and all the team at Airborne Platforms have been great in helping me with my GVC course and subsequent PFCO Authorisation. I found the online course really intuative and the ability to use the portal to study a bit whenever I wanted to be useful fitting in and around everything else. Any problems or issues I had I got a fast response from Chris usually by a phone call to go through the issue and resolve super quickly. The weekly meeting sessions were a goldmine of information and great to be able to get Chris and Denis obvious expertise on problems that can come up I hadn't even thought of, they are both very knowledgeable and happy to help. When it came time for my practical, Mick and Chris were very encouraging and put me at ease quickly and it was quickly apparent that they had me as a student as their prime concern. Overall I would recommend Airborne Platforms to anyone looking for a course to fit around you with excellent friendly help and support whenever you need it.

Wonderful course and amazing value for money! When I chose this online course I presumed that for this price that I would be pretty much left to my own devices and assistance would be sparse if not non-existent. This is not the case at all. Chris and the other instructors are always on hand for help and advice and the weekly zoom meetings are absolutely invaluable. And the course videos make the practical assesment and Ops Manual much clearer. Self motivation is needed to get through the first few stages of course material, but don't be daunted by all the heavy technical jargon, the later modules are much simpler. Would absolutely reccommend to anyone!

A fantastic service which goes above and beyond for you to pass and fully understand the content of this course. Chris is unbelievably patient and gives so much time for you to feel comfortable to take the final assessments. An ideal service to help anyone looking to fly a drone commercially and access to a great community of like minded people that are ready to share ideas and tips. I can't thank Chris and the team enough.
