Has anyone taken an online drone/quadcopter training course in preparation for the FAA Part 107 certification exam that they would recommend? ---

I’m curious: If you hold an Airman’s Certificate, does the drone certification go on it like another rating would? ---

Ideally apropos topic for me as my great and wonderful wife got me a DJI Phantom 4 Pro, a pair of Fatshark Dominator V3 FPV goggles, and an ARGtek range extender for Xmas. She really does love me. {sniff} 😃 Now for a question that I haven’t gotten a definitive answer to yet: Does anyone know if the exam for the 107 commercial cert supersedes the 333? In other words, if I already have the 333 exemption, do I need to take the 107 exam anyway? ---

I’ve got a P3P, and it’s been a great source of info. ---
