Free quote — drone pilot training in Bourg-en-Bresse

In Bourg-en-Bresse, the open spaces of Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes make ideal training grounds: piloting basics are learned in calm areas before tackling urban scenarios and regulated environments. From Monastère royal de Brou to the outlying districts, our pilots know the terrain of Bourg-en-Bresse and prepare every flight on the local aeronautical chart.

Prefecture of the Ain, Bourg-en-Bresse takes pride in the royal monastery of Brou: a dazzling flamboyant-Gothic church, polychrome glazed-tile roofs and a triple cloister built by Margaret of Austria — voted France's favourite monument in 2014, a first-rate aerial subject (with the monument's authorisations). The half-timbered old town and market halls complete the scene. Bourg-Ceyzériat aerodrome (LFHS) to the south-east is the main point of attention, in airspace otherwise marked by the Lyon-Geneva corridors. The local economy relies on emblematic food production (Bresse AOP poultry, the world's first appellation poultry), industrial vehicle bodywork (Renault Trucks), the Oyonnax plastics valley nearby and services.
