If you're serious about flying drones legally and professionally in New Zealand, getting properly certified is no longer optional it’s essential.
At NZ Drones Academy, we’ve created the Part 101 Pro Bundle Day & Night Drone Pilot Certification to give pilots everything they need to operate confidently, legally, and professionally across Aotearoa.
Whether you’re a beginner, content creator, civil contractor, agricultural operator, or aspiring commercial pilot, this bundle sets the foundation for safe, compliant, and high-value drone operations.
Under the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) framework, anyone flying commercially must operate within Part 101 or Part 102 rules.
Even recreational pilots are legally required to understand:
- Airspace classifications
- 4km aerodrome rules
- Flying near people and property
- Emergency procedures
- Risk management
- Night operation requirements
Many pilots underestimate how quickly small mistakes can lead to serious legal consequences.
Professional training protects you, your clients, and your future.
The Part 101 Pro Bundle combines two powerful certifications:
