Attention #Drone Pilots – Read This - Exciting
Updates to the Low Altitude Authorization and Notification
Capability
The
Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA)
today announced two important expansions of the Low
Altitude Authorization and Capability (LAANC), which automates
the application and approval process for drone pilots to obtain
airspace authorizations in controlled airspace.
The
capability is now active at Baltimore/Washington International
Thurgood Marshall Airport, Dulles International Airport, William
P. Hobby Airport in Houston and Newark Liberty International
Airport. A full list of airports covered by
LAANC is available on our website.
Seven
additional companies have been approved by the FAA to provide
LAANC services.
LAANC
directly supports the safe integration of UAS into the nation’s
airspace, expedites the time it takes for drone pilots to receive
authorizations to fly under 400 feet in controlled airspace.
LAANC
also provides pilots with an awareness of where they can and
cannot fly.
The
program is accessible to all pilots who operate under the FAA’s
small drone rule (Part 107) and was expanded in July to
provide near real-time airspace authorizations to recreational
flyers.
LAANC
provides airspace
authorizations only. Pilots must still check NOTAMs and
weather conditions before they fly.
