    Wat. I just did a quick search and there was 7-ish schools. Gimme some info if you don't mind, as I'm sure the FAA will want someone flying a 20 lb multirotor with some credentials.

    Kind of far away from you:

    http://www.houstonflighttraining.com/

    Or... go here: http://www.gleim.com/aviation/direc...s&selectCity=Houston&selectState=TX#avTab=cfi

    Ctrl+F and type Pearland... you don't have to use a school to get your cert.

    My buddy instructs out of Hooks airport in Spring, so it may be a bit of a drive

    Hmmmm. Let see. Oilfield work is tanking... I have some where between 800-1000hrs in multicopter flight time (will have to go back to the books and add everything up) Been flying rc stuff for close to 20yrs. Worked at a hobby shop as a kid for a couple years... now the pilots license.

    I still need to determine what quals we will need for the crews we hire... Class II medical and private pilot are a must and then looking for guys with military UAS experience and then hobby type guys I reckon
