Drone pilots trying to jumpseat?
Overheard a conversation about civilian drone pilots trying to get approved to occupy the jumpseat. Anyone hear about this??

Since they can’t reciprocate I’m not too worried.

Thats so outrageously ridiculous that it’s probably true. Would love to be in the room with ALPA and the drone operators when that conversation goes down.

But it is a dumb idea. I doubt the FAA would ever sign off on it. |
Under what regulation would the drone pilots be able to jumpseat? I don't know of any drones operated under 121 or 135.

Just got an ALPA update warning to check credentials because several drone “pilots” have tried to use the jumpseat.
