    0:09I am Dr. Heather Monthie, an FAA certificated flight instructor, commercial pilot, remote pilot and dedicated stem educator. Join us as we discover more about drone safety, urban Air Mobility, business and education. Let's get started. Hello, and welcome back to the Discover drones podcast. I'm Heather Monthie, your host for this podcast. This is Episode Five of the podcast. And if you haven't checked out episodes three and four yet, I will explain to you what we're doing here between episodes three and eight. What I'm doing is I'm sharing some information that is in my understanding airspace and VFR sectional charts for remote pilots course. And you can find that course at WWW dot fly electric monarch comm slash courses. I will link to that in the show notes But what I'm doing is I'm sharing with you in these six episodes, a free sort of preview or pre free snippets of what you will get in the course. So this is a video based course. So what I have done is I've pulled the audio out of the video to give to you here in this podcast. If you would like to actually see the actual video that's in the course, sometimes it does help to see the video just because you know that going through all the different documents and knowing what knowing what you're looking at with charts, and you know, all the different things that you have to be able to see, you can go watch the videos, too, so I've given you the videos for free as well. So you can check those out. I've got the link to the show notes that'll bring you right to the website where I've got the podcast, and then I've got the actual video that is in the course so you can check it out, see if it's something that you like, and then also learn a little bit. So in this episode, we're going to talk about how to use the FAA computer testing supplement. Before we get Get into the episode, I wanted to remind you that you can check out other great episodes of the Discover drones podcast at discover drones podcast.com. How to use the FAA computer testing supplement for the part 107 exam. So the FAA publishes its computer testing supplements right on its website. So what these are is a supplement that you're going to get when you take your part 107 exam. And it's going to give you all the figures and diagrams and charts and everything that your questions on the exam we're going to refer to so you'll get a question that'll say, you, you choose this, choose that XYZ blah, blah, blah, see figure three dot eight, okay? And when it says, See figure three that day, that means you need to go and refer to this computer testing supplement, where you go and take the test, they will provide that supplement for you. It's generally going to be a printed like workbook style. That's going to be awesome. Kind of bent up and tattered. It is not allowable to write in there. So there shouldn't be any writing or scratch marks or anything like that in there,

  • Oshkosh 2020 is cancelled, so I am starting the Discover Drones Podcast
    EAA Airventure (Or “Oshkosh” to aviation enthusiasts, or just “EAA to locals”) has been cancelled this year due to the on-going pandemic. This is arguably the best aviation event any aviation enthusiast could possibly attend filled with 500,000-600,000 aviation enthusiasts from around the world. This is an event that started out for experimental aircraft aviation enthusiasts, usually homebuilders. Over the years, it has expanded to commercial aviation, general aviation, military aviation, and unmanned aviation. (Unmanned aviation is exactly what this new podcast is about!)
    I grew up just a few miles north of the Oshkosh. Fueled my love of aviation all growing up! EAA is holding a “Spirit of Aviation Week” instead. There’s lots of video content at www.EAATogether.org and even a few things about the future of unmanned aviation,
    It’s not the same thing, but I am glad to be able to learn a ton this week. I normally work on the ramp, so I don’t always get time to attend workshops and seminars.
    Discover Drones Podcast
    So let’s talk a bit more about what this podcast will be.
    I started a podcast In July 2018 about STEM education. I quickly realized that my episodes where I talked about drones were the most popular. It didn’t make sense to focus my website in my name on drones, so I started a separate website (and company) dedicated to drone education and training, Electric Monarch Drone Education. www.FlyElectricMonarch.com
    This website is very specific to drone education, including Part 107 training, drones in STEM education, starting and operating an aviation services company, and emerging drone technology, including urban air mobility and drone cybersecurity.
    As FlyElectricMonarch.com grows, it makes sense to start adding different types of educational materials for you, such as podcasts, videos, e-books and more. I want this to be your go to resource for reliable and accurate information on drone safety, regulations, and advancements.
    For now, this will be a solo podcast, with just me sharing the things I’ve learned over the years, the things I am learning now, and how you can use the information in your own drone-related business endeavors. At some point, yes, I will have guests, but I wanted to get this started, get it going, and deliver you some great content.
    So, welcome to the Discover Drones Podcast, with me, Heather Monthie. Make sure you never miss a new episode by clicking the subscribe button in whichever app you’re using to listen to this episode. Thanks for joining me on the Discover Drones Podcast. Please make sure to visit our website at www.FlyElectricMonarch.com to learn more about drones. We’ll see you in the next episode!

    Heather Monthie 0:26Hi there, and welcome to the very first episode of the Discover drones podcast. I'm super excited to start out this new project. I'm starting it because look at the topic of this podcast, Oshkosh 2020 is cancelled. So I'm starting the discovered drones podcast. So I have been an aviation enthusiast since I was a little kid and it's been a big part of my life all growing up all in my adult life. And I have been very passionate about sharing aviation, along with STEM education. And so what I want
    Heather Monthie 1:00wanted to do was start up a podcast specific to those of you who are brand new to the aviation world and are just getting started with drones. And whether it might be you are interested in getting into drones as a career, you might be looking to start a drone business,
