On this link: Request a Waiver/Airspace Authorization – Small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) This is where you apply for waiver. At the very top are 2 links called "Instructions" and "Performsnce based standards". Inside the Performance based standards document is everything you need for...

If your timeframe was only for one day and it has passed then yes it has been cancelled. I requested multiple 6 month timeframes with 1 mile radius'. This was based on a conversation I had with the FAA regarding how big a radius I could apply for. I simply made a map and requested everywhere I...

I received a similar email this morning. However, I received an approval last week. Have not submitted another one. So kind of weird.

I received an approved Airspace auth for Class D airspace for a 6 month time frame on Friday. I know a lot of people were unsure about timelines and how much time to apply for, etc. We weren't sure if we needed a daily auth or could apply for a length of time. I initially applied with a...

Class D airspace.

Yea I made a thread for it a week or 2 ago. I submitted in mid September after getting my temporary. It was for one day, one hour, less than 200' agl, and near water. (Lake Michigan). The rejected reason was "flight puts you over open water". Which doesn't make sense since I will be taking...

I have received a rejection and it was an attached PDF letter sent to the email used on the application.

I found this in the international text of Part 107: " The Small UAV Coalition sought clarification regarding whether UAS operations over water and beyond 12 nautical miles from the U.S. coast could be conducted under part 107, provided the operations are within U.S. flight information regions...

I received my Airspace Authorization (Class D) denial letter today via email.... The reason for denial was "Your operation will be over Water". Did I miss something here? We are not allowed to operate over open water? It is not a restricted waterway, it is a bay on Lake Michigan and I have...

No, the FAA notifies the ATC and issues a NOTAM. I will not be communicating at all with local airports, as directed by the FAA. Neither should you.

Phil, just remember that the FAA wants you to submit requests as soon as possible. They say at least 90 days on their website. However, I have recently read that they will be using a phased approach based on airspace. Here is the estimated timeline for now: " Airspace Authorization: Users...

I have the same thing this morning. Certificate ready and printed but still have transferred as a status
