S3E28 – BVLOS Mastery: Full Mission Walkthrough from Planning to Debrief
Description
Flying Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) isn’t just about passing the exam—it’s about executing a full mission with precision, safety, and accountability. From pre-flight risk assessments to post-flight debriefs, every step matters.
In S3E28 of Sky Commander Academy, we take you inside a realistic BVLOS mission scenario and walk you through the process start to finish. If you’ve ever wondered how to actually apply all the theory you’ve learned, this is the episode that connects the dots.
In this episode:
📝 Mission planning phase – how to scope a BVLOS operation, select the right route, and file the required documents
📡 Airspace & regulatory coordination – working with NAV CANADA, ATC, and ground stakeholders before launch
🚁 Pre-flight procedures – site assessment, NOTAM review, crew briefings, and equipment readiness checks
🧭 In-flight management – maintaining situational awareness, crew coordination, and detect-and-avoid decision-making
🚨 Emergency contingencies – what happens when GNSS is lost, control link fails, or weather changes mid-flight
📊 Post-flight debrief – logging data, analyzing flight performance, and capturing lessons learned for continuous improvement
💡 Pro pilot insights – where most BVLOS operations go wrong, and how to prepare so yours succeeds
This is the closest thing to flying BVLOS without launching a drone. By the end, you’ll not only know the process—you’ll be able to visualize yourself executing it with confidence.
