A2 COFC (Certificate of Competency) is a certification that drone pilots need to fly certain types of drones in the European Union. It is part of the regulations set by the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) to ensure safe drone operations.
To obtain an A2 COFC, drone pilots need to complete a theoretical knowledge course from an approved training organization. They also need to demonstrate flying skills and knowledge of aviation regulations.
A2 COFC allows drone pilots to fly in the Open Category under specific conditions, including flying in the "A2" subcategory with drones that meet certain criteria regarding weight, design, and capabilities.
Getting an A2 COFC is essential for drone pilots who want to operate their drones legally and safely within the European Union. Make sure to fulfill all the requirements and enjoy flying your drone in compliance with EASA regulations.
