Looking for a Black Friday Part 107 drone training course deal? A bunch of great online Part 107 test prep courses are offering mega discounts this week — and even into next week.
For most people, online training programs are the most cost-effective and time-efficient ways to study.
Four of my favorite programs are offering discounts this Black Friday week and into Cyber Monday 2024. So with that, here are the Black Friday Part 107 course deals you need to know:
Between now and Nov. 29, you can get access to Drone Pilot Ground School, which is the largest Part 107 training course in the world for just $107. That’s the lowest price ever offered on this course.
And I officially endorse it. After all, it’s what I used to study for (and pass!) the Part 107 test.
Their course includes hours video-based lectures, practice questions, a “cram sheet,” flash cards and more. There are also weekly zoom calls to ask questions and network.
Plus, Drone Pilot Ground School offers a money-back guarantee that you’ll pass on your first try. — the industry’s #1 online test prep course that guarantees you’ll pass the FAA Part 107 test on your first try or your money back.
Pilot Institute is primarily known for their courses for crewed aircraft. With them, you can learn about checkrides and instrument ratings. But you came for Part 107 courses, and those are on sale in a sense too — but only if you purchase other courses. That’s because the Pilot Institute Black Friday sale is a buy more, save more type deal.
Sure, you can save a little bit on just the Part 107 class. But if you throw in others, you’ll save even more. Here are the discounts:
