Earning your FAA Remote Pilot Certificate is just the beginning—staying current is what keeps you legal to fly. Every 24 months, the FAA requires active pilots to complete recurrent training to stay sharp on airspace, regulations, and emerging drone operations. Skip it, and your privileges go dark fast.

In S4E4 of Sky Commander Academy, we break down exactly what it takes to stay current under Part 107, how to complete your free FAA recurrent training online, and what’s changed since the FAA updated the rules in 2021.

In this episode:
📅 24-month rule explained – when your clock starts ticking and how to track your renewal cycle
💻 Recurrent training vs. knowledge test – the difference between initial certification and currency maintenance
🎓 Free FAA online training – where to find it, how to complete it, and what to expect from the interactive modules
🧠 Topics you must review – airspace, night operations, operating over people, and new remote ID standards
⚡ Proof of currency – how to download, print, and store your completion record in case of FAA inspection
💡 Pro tips – reminders to set calendar alerts, keep your IACRA and FAA accounts synced, and stay ahead of upcoming rule changes

Your FAA certificate doesn’t expire—it just goes inactive if you stop training. This episode gives you the exact plan to stay compliant, confident, and current—so your pilot status never misses a beat.
