📆 A Day in the Life

You kick off the morning reviewing agency deadlines and checking the status of pending permit requests. After confirming insurance documentation and prepping an FAA application for an upcoming aerial line crossing, you hop on a call with the Michigan DNR to resolve a question about wetland access.
