US Commercial Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) Training Growth Opportunities

Description

Future Growth Potential Enhanced by Affordable, Risk-free Simulator Software Applications

This study examines the US training market for commercial UAS, highlighting what is driving its revenue growth. The market is stable and growing with increasing commercial and public safety UAS and registered aircraft. Commercial applications for UAS have expanded in the past decade, and UAS-related job positions have opened in diverse industry segments, increasing the need to train UAS operators. Service companies, OEMs, simulator software providers, and educational institutions provide training in the United States. Many colleges and universities offer UAS-related programs, and the FAA recognizes most of them.

UAS flight simulators are gaining popularity because technology enhancements enable a more realistic and affordable experience. As UAS gains autonomy, the training must adapt to new types of operations. However, the US market landscape is regionally fragmented, as training requirements vary depending on the local environment. Overall, commercial UAS applications are nascent and evolving. Because the industry has not developed many formal standards, instruction varies greatly, challenging the training market and affecting performance outcomes.

In this study, market segments include recreational flight, commercial operations, and public safety training.
