The Permanent Editioral Board: Aviators Code Initiative
he Permanent Editorial Board (PEB) provides editorial oversight and stewardship of the Aviators Code Initiative (ACI) and implementation of the family of codes of conduct and supporting materials
The Aviators Code Initiative and Unmanned Aircraft Systems Summary
The Aviators Code Initiative (ACI) provides original tools to advance aviation safety and professionalism, and to provide a vision of excellence for aviators. With aviation experience totaling more than 500 years, the Permanent Editorial Board builds upon the ACI’s 18-year foundation of creating a family of guidance materials for pilots of manned and unmanned aircraft, instructors, maintenance technicians and others
Press Release: The Aviators Code Initiative Releases: Improving Cockpit Awareness of Unmanned Aircraft Systems Near Airports
In recognition of the increasing risk of operating in shared airspace near airports, the Aviators Code Initiative has released a working paper titled Improving Cockpit Awareness of Unmanned Aircraft Systems Near Airports. The paper describes a method to provide pilots of manned aircraft with enhanced awareness of nearby sUAS in certain kinds of airspace
Press Release: Aviators Code Initiative and its Aviators Codes of Conduct to be Permanently Hosted at the Florida Institute of Technology’s Evans Library.
The Aviators Code Initiative (ACI) and the Evans Library at Florida Institute of Technology are proud to announce a new affiliation that will permanently host the full collection of ACI material including the Aviators Codes of Conduct through the Evans Library’s online Scholarship Repository
Press Release: Promoting Safety in Unmanned Aircraft Systems: The Aviators Code Initiative and University Aviation Association Release The UAS Pilots Code
January 30, 2018 – In an effort to address safety concerns arising from the widespread use of small unmanned aircraft, the Aviators Code Initiative (formerly the Aviators Model Code of Conduct Initiative) and the University Aviation Association released guidance aimed at advancing safety, airmanship, and professionalism among UAS pilots and operators

17. Commentary To AMCC III.e – Training and Proficiency
e. accurately log hours flown and maneuvers practiced to satisfy training and currency requirements.
About the Commentary: The Commentary addresses selected issues within the Code of Conduct to elaborate on their meaning, provide interpretive guidance, and suggest ways of adopting the Code of Conduct. It is intended primarily for implementers, policy administrators, aviation association management, and pilots who wish to explore the Code in greater depth

Safety Guidance for Manned Aircraft Pilots Operating in the Presence of Drones
Drones, or Unmanned Aircraft Systems—UAS— create substantive (if not profound) new capabilities, opportunities, and benefits. But as drones become more common, manned aircraft operators face new challenges. The FAA asserts that drones “are inherently different from manned aircraft” and “create situations not common to manned flight.” Current safety initiatives advancing aircraft integration focus almost exclusively on drone operators using education, regulation, and (more recently) enforcement. Promising technologies may provide effective manned/unmanned aircraft interoperability in the near future, but these nascent efforts do not fully address the risks to manned aircraft created by drones
