Professional Organizations - NAAA - How Crewed Experience Can Benefit UAS Operators
- Date/Time: Tuesday, March 24, 2026 at 7:00 PM CDT (19:00 Central)
- Why it matters: UAS Part 137 operators are entering the professional aerial application space faster than ever. There are decades of hard-earned crewed ag aviation experience that can be accessed—especially from the National Agricultural Aviation Association (NAAA)—can dramatically shorten the learning curve on safety, decision-making, regulatory navigation, and operational excellence.
- Guest: Andrew Moore, CEO of the National Agricultural Aviation Association (NAAA). With more than 25 years serving the ag aviation industry (starting in 1997 as Director of Legislative & Regulatory Affairs), Andrew has led NAAA’s efforts in safety advocacy, regulatory affairs, and support for both manned and emerging uncrewed aerial application professionals.
- What you’ll get:
- Clear explanation of how crewed ag aviation experience directly benefits UAS operators
- Overview of NAAA resources, membership value, and professional development opportunities
- Actionable steps for UAS operators to engage with professional organizations
- Safety Zone: The dedicated segment covering relevant safety issues for UAS Part 137 operators.
- Hosts / Moderators: Joel Jones (Drone Crop Services) & Jeramy Williams (American Drone)
- Format: Live Zoom webinar with interactive Q&A for everyone who joins live. FAASTeam SPANS event
