Global Drone Training - Norwich

I had a great experience both on the course and in the follow up. Great client support as well from Alexandra. Totally recommend The Aerial Academy for anyone looking for training or assistance to obtain their PfCO.

A totally professional, highly knowledgeable and personable team providing outstanding training and advice. Such a refreshing, confidence building and enjoyable experience throughout our PfCO training and Certification process. Highly recommended without any hesitation whatsoever.

I left a review way back when I got my PfCO qualification. That was for their warm, friendly approach, along with their passion and teaching skills. This is a follow up to the review, based their continued support.In short, their after care is bloody brilliant.Really helpful when I’m a little unsure of something on a risk assessment, I just get in touch with them via Facebook or email, and always receive a quick, detailed, response. They keep me updated with changes in the industry, in an easy-to-understand way.For a small business like ours, this is invaluable. I can just get on running the business. A trusted authority in the drone industry

Elliott at GDT was the first professional contact I made when I moved to Norfolk. He has been fantastic since, with helpful advice and contacts, even lending me a piece of kit that I needed to fulfil a client request. It is no surprise to me that many others endorse Global Drone Training for their openness, kindness, knowledge sharing and overall high standard of service.

Worked with Aerial Academy for the last 24 months, very knowledge and professional service throughout from training, applying for permission and recommending tailored equipment and tips. Especially recommended for any individuals or new organisation coming into the industry and need help getting established!

Really happy with the level of training and guidance I have had from Elliott and the team at Aerial Academy.I came on a taster day a year and was hooked. As a photographer I wanted to add a drone to my kit bag and understand important basics to maximise safe flying.After that day, I knew that I wanted to complete my PfCO and was offered various deals by different companies, but I knew it was more important to be comfortable with the trainer to be able to learn.I feel happy that I received good training and knowing the team are there to answer questions at any time.Looking to do the PfCO the academy are based all over UK not just Norwich. Best thing I have achieved in many years.Thanks everyone

Just a quick note to say many thanks for all your help on my operational assessment, but also throughout the entire process of becoming a qualified drone pilot. I have to say that every part of the course, although challenging (as it should be), was really well thought out and delivered and the professionalism of your operation is clear for all to see. From start to finish it's been a lot of fun and I've obtained a very worthwhile qualification in the process, so please pass on my thanks to all your team. I would have absolutely no hesitation in recommending you to anyone.

I really enjoyed training to remotely pilot aircraft with the Aerial Academy. Elliott was extremely knowledgeable, very experienced and great at teaching - sometimes quite difficult concepts and regulations - in a concise and systematic manner that made the assessments far easier to tackle than I had feared when signing up. The support Elliott offers, in developing your Operations Manual and making your application to the Civil Aviation Authority is exemplary and I cannot recommend the Aerial Academy more highly to anyone considering using drones or other UAVs in their work. Many thanks.Update One Year Later - just been through the renewal process with The Aerial Academy - super slick automated system taking you systematically through all the details and appended documentation need for the update Operation Manual. Took only one hour and then next day the documents were all emailed over along with a link to the CAA website to which the Aerial Academy system has interfaced: everything had already been populated, attachments already uploaded: I only needed to double check all was indeed correct, agree and pay. Superb service.

I would give these guys 10 out of 5 stars if I could. Their pro membership has been an essential part of my drone business, allowing me to draw on their huge experience and all the latest information in a landscape which is constantly changing.

I attended my drone training at The Aerial Academy and successfully received my Pfco. The experience was first class, enjoyable and informative. I felt that The Aerial Academy had a genuine desire to help me obtain my Pfco and the experience I needed. Nothing was too much to ask. After doing the theory and assessment course I received help in applying for my Pfco. This was seamless and they have a great Admin team to hold your hand through the process. Thank you to The Aerial Academy.
