Pre-flight compliance for UAS crews
Everything
before liftoff.
Airspace, certs, insurance and the client's paperwork. Cleared, current and on one shareable Operator Passport. You fly. BLKBOX keeps the record.
On record. On time. Airborne.
01 · The askEvery job
The client asks the same five things. Every job.
Before a crew gets a call time, someone wants the insurance certificate, the equipment list, Blue UAS status, crew size and proof the airspace is handled. Most operators keep it in their head, a camera roll and three inboxes. It costs a morning per job and one missed expiration can cost the job.

04 · OriginWhy BLKBOX
The black box holds the whole flight. BLKBOX holds everything before it.
BLKBOX was built by a Marine Corps UAS Operator and Part 107 Pilot with years spent in an aircrew training unit, tracking every pilot's quals, flights, hours and training before missions.
Commercial crews face the same checks with none of that support. BLKBOX brings the aircrew record to Part 107 Operators, so the paperwork is cleared before you start your flight mission.
