ASFC, issued by air sports Association of China, only tests unmanned aerial vehicles under 7 kg. Actually, it should be called "model airplane driver's license".

Air sports Association of China (ASFC) is a national mass sports organization with independent legal personality, a group member of the All-China Sports Federation, responsible for the management of the national air sports, and the only legal organization that represents China in the activities of the International Aviation Federation and the corresponding FIA and organizes national competitions.

Second, UTC.

Utc is a training and research system jointly sponsored by DJI, General Aviation Branch of China Air Transport Association and China Adult Education Association. It has been recognized by some manufacturers such as DJI, the Aviation Equipment Association and the Civil Aviation Administration of China. After half a month's training, you can usually get a certificate, but in fact you can only fly to DJI. It is mainly aimed at industrial application services, such as aerial photography and plant protection, which all use aircraft from DJI. Therefore, there will always be some product performance introductions during lectures, and products will be promoted while teaching.

Three. AOPA

AOPA backstage is the most difficult and only drone license recognized by law at present. The licensee has the legal right to approve airspace and declare routes. Most UAV companies, if it is more important for candidates to have a certificate, then this certificate must be AOPA.

Here, I want to correct a misunderstanding. Aopa, which was criticized before, is only a certificate of the association and has no legal effect. Yes, that was true before, but since September 1 2065438, the valid UAV pilot certificate issued by CAAC has been automatically converted into the UAV pilot electronic license issued by CAAC, and the rights stated in the original certificate have been transferred to the electronic license. "That is to say, after September 2065438+2008, the Civil Aviation Administration of China personally managed it, and the AOPA Association was an industry association authorized by the Civil Aviation Administration before it personally managed it, and it was temporarily managed!
