Scott Ashby was such a pleasure to interact with. He takes operation very seriously and he is as concerned as I am about doing it safely and I have a lot of respect for that. He taught me a lot too! He is good people. 5 stars, without a doubt. Easiest review I've ever had to do.

I recently did my Flight Review with Scott for my advanced operations Drone certification. The experience was short of excellent. Scott was professional and focused on the topics that matter when it comes to the safe operation of a drone. Would highly recommend!

Thank you Sky Lens Studios! Officially certified in advanced operations. Scott was very friendly and incredibly helpful along the way and answered any questions I had prepping for the flight review. I highly recommended Scott if you're in the area or are willing to make the trip.
