Bring the story into view— without losing sight of the airspace.
If you’re reaching out about professional drone operations, FAA Part 107 compliance, or safety education, you’ve landed in the right place. As an FAA-certificated Remote Pilot and FAA Safety Team DronePro serving Colorado and Wyoming, I approach every mission as a professional aviation operation within the National Airspace System—not as a casual flight, but as a disciplined exercise in risk management, regulatory fluency, and public trust.
Through The Wright Flyer, I provide broadcast-ready aerial visuals that have supported regional and international documentaries, public-lands advocacy, and educational initiatives—work grounded in preparation, precision, and respect for the airspace we share. Whether you’re navigating a complex operational question, planning a project in sensitive terrain, or seeking a speaker who can translate FAA regulations into real-world safety culture, you’re connecting with someone who operates at the intersection of compliance, capability, and stewardship.
I’m glad you’re here—and I look forward to helping you move forward safely and confidently. I work with documentary producers, land managers, agencies, brokerage firms, organizations, and private clients who require credible, regulation-compliant aerial work—or who want to avoid the operational, legal, and reputational risks that arise when drone use is handled incorrectly.
Aviation judgment, not guesswork
A drone flight may look simple from the ground, but it still occurs inside the National Airspace System. I look at the operation the way an aviator should: airspace, weather, terrain, people, property, crew roles, emergency options, and the consequences if something does not go as planned.
Production value with a safety case
Through The Wright Flyer, I provide broadcast-ready aerial visuals that have supported regional and international documentaries, public-lands advocacy, and educational initiatives—work grounded in preparation, precision, and respect for the airspace we share.
Credibility protected before publication
The image is only part of the deliverable. For agencies, land managers, brokerages, producers, and organizations, the larger question is whether the flight was lawful, safe, explainable, and defensible after the work is seen by the public.
FAA Part 107–compliant aerial photography and cinematography
Documentary, historic preservation, land management, infrastructure, and real estate projects where the imagery needs to serve a larger purpose—not simply look dramatic. The goal is footage that can stand up to production needs, client scrutiny, public visibility, and regulatory expectations.
Drone safety briefings and presentations
FAA Safety Team–aligned education built around real-world examples, operational decision-making, and risk mitigation. The emphasis is practical: what can go wrong, what it can cost, and how better planning protects safety, credibility, and future operational freedom.
Operational consultation
Airspace, land-manager coordination, feasibility, sensitive locations, site constraints, and GO / NO-GO thinking before a project drifts into avoidable risk. This is especially useful when the flight location, public visibility, or organizational exposure makes “just flying it” the wrong answer.
Recreational and Part 107 questions
Clear guidance for pilots, organizations, and decision-makers when the rules, assumptions, or edge cases are unclear. A careful answer early can prevent a much harder conversation later—especially when a flight is tied to business use, public communication, or sensitive terrain.
What I don’t do
Some flights are not made safer by rushing them. They are made safer by recognizing when the answer is no, not yet, or not under those conditions.
- “Quick” flights that bypass airspace, land-manager, or safety requirements
- Operations that cannot be conducted legally or responsibly
Before you reach out
To help determine feasibility efficiently, initial inquiries should include enough operational context to separate a promising project from a risky one before scheduling, pricing, or deliverables are discussed.
- LocationAddress, coordinates, parcel, trailhead, landmark, or project area.
- PurposeHow the imagery will be used, published, distributed, or relied upon.
- TimelinePreferred date, deadline, weather flexibility, and whether the request is urgent.
- Site activityPeople, vehicles, traffic, structures, livestock, events, or other activity nearby.
- JurisdictionKnown land manager, agency, private property, HOA, resort, municipality, or special restrictions.
Get in touch
Tell me a bit about what you’re working on, where it’s located, and what questions you’re trying to resolve. I personally review every inquiry and appreciate the opportunity to understand your project.
The best way to reach me is by email at hello@faapart107certifiedpilot.com or through Facebook Messenger. I’m frequently in scheduled video meetings during the day, so if your question is time-sensitive, a brief email or text is typically the fastest way to reach me. If a phone conversation would be helpful, I’m always glad to schedule one.
Turnaround for most projects—from initial conversation to final deliverables—typically averages under two days, subject to airspace, weather, and site conditions.
