PICPilot profile · About

Pilot by trade, engineer by habit.

I'm Liu Purnomo, a drone instructor and remote pilot from Indonesia. I founded Drone Indonesia and lead Remote Pilot Indonesia, and I've trained more than 5,000 pilots for ministries, the military, state owned enterprises, and universities.

On the ground I'm a software engineer. I started building websites in 2013 and now ship full stack systems that run in production every day. I've also written three books on drone operations.
