Had a great experience with Osprey Drone Training on their GVC course. The theory course is succinct and test with Kat was conveniently arranged at a time that suits you both. The one to one GVC exam with Justin at Heli Ops Portland was friendly and insightful and his endeavour to run a bespoke training course is massively appreciated. Thanks guys!

Nobody likes to have to do training courses and exams, but Osprey really do make it painless. Justin and Kat both take care to put you at ease and explain everything at every stage of the process. Unlike other RAE's the course isn't padded out to justify high fees - you're taught what you need to know, no more, no less. I found Osprey through word of mouth recommendation. I shall be happy to do the same.

I have just passed my PFCO to GVC conversion exam and want to thank Kat and Justin for their streamline site in achieving my goals. I would highly recommend for future pilots as they were very professional and put you at ease very fast. When searching for a course or RAE to work with these guys came to mind with their value for money and sought after recommendations. If I need in the future for other bolt ones I will definitely be returning. Thank you again Justin & Kat.

Just completed the PFCO to GVC conversion course. Brilliant and very straightforward training course. Highly recommended to any PFCO holders needing to update before the end of 2023. Both Justin and Kat were extremely helpful and professional.
