FAA Part 137 — Dispensing Chemicals & Agricultural Products with UAS
The third pillar alongside our Part 107 and Part 108 tracks. Eight modules cover the operator certificate, dispensing systems, swath and drift management, PPE, and congested-area waivers — paired with live practice in our precision-ag spray simulator.
Part 137 Regulatory Framework
Scope of ag aircraft operations, who needs a 137 certificate, and how it stacks with Part 107 / Part 108.
Operator Certificate & Application
Knowledge & skill test, means of compliance, and the application package the FSDO expects.
Dispensing Systems
Tank capacity, boom design, nozzle selection, flow calibration, and pump/pressure basics for UAS spray rigs.
Chemical Safety & PPE
Label reading, WPS, mixing/loading, exposure limits, decontamination, and spill response.
Swath, Coverage & Drift Management
Boom width vs. altitude, wind-drift compensation, off-target reduction, and coverage QA.
Congested-Area & Waiver Operations
§137.51 congested-area operations, adjacent-property notifications, and typical waiver conditions.
Recordkeeping & Compliance
Application records, chemical use logs, and reporting obligations to the FAA, EPA, and state agencies.
Practical Exam Prep
Sample questions and full spray-mission runs in the simulator using the ag-spray scenario.
