The Story Behind American Aerial Academy
“Starting with a drone, a Part 107 certification, and a simple outreach system, Vito Alamia built Hampton Aerial into a paid drone media business serving real estate professionals, commercial developers, and local businesses. Early on, Hampton Aerial landed work with names like CBRE and Douglas Elliman, generated over $10,000 in its first two months, and grew an audience of 3,000+ followers. As the business evolved, Vito also expanded into AI-powered real estate renders and visual content systems. American Aerial Academy was created to teach that same proven foundation: pass the FAA exam, build real-world drone confidence, and learn how paid drone work actually happens”
