Search and Rescue with Jay Manley (Free)
I just completed this DSAR course through the Drone Pro Academy. Jay Manley does a great job of presenting the material in easy to understand sections.
The topics include coordination with other agencies, crew resource management, terminology, ground operations and safety, types of search patterns, importance of practice, kinds of SAR missions, what to look for, SAR video examples, outcomes, challenges and other aspects of DSAR missions.
Jay brings a solid background of years of SAR and DSAR that provide valuable insights to Quad pilots who are interested in participating in DSAR operations.
I’ll be working on the National Incident Management System (NIMS) courses next:
