Publisher Description
Check airspace status and obtain real-time authorization via LAANC to operate your drone in controlled airspace. Supports recreational & Part 107 drone operations.
Obtain real-time airspace authorization to operate your drone controlled airspace via the FAA's Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC) service. Supports recreational and Part 107 operations (day and night).
▸ Check whether controlled, restricted, or prohibited airspace exists at your proposed flight location.
▸ Obtain authorization to operate within controlled airspace via LAANC.
▸ View current weather conditions for your drone flight.
How does LAANC work?
LAANC automates the application and approval process for controlled airspace authorizations. Requests are checked against multiple airspace data sources in the FAA UAS Data Exchange such as UAS Facility Maps, Special Use Airspace data, Airports and Airspace Classes, as well as Temporary Flight Restrictions (TFRs) and Notices to Airmen (NOTAMs). If approved, pilots can receive their authorization in near-real time.
Unless specifically requested in an authorization, drone pilots do not need to notify the tower before they fly.
How Do I Use LAANC?
LAANC is available to recreational and Part 107 pilots. Drone pilots may use LAANC in two ways:
▸ Receive a near real-time automatic authorization for drone operations under 400 feet in controlled airspace around airports (available to Part 107 Pilots and Recreational Flyers). These automatic authorizations may be limited to a ceiling below 400 feet to ensure a safe buffer between drones and piloted aircraft.
▸ Submit a "further coordination request" if you need to fly your drone above the designated altitude ceiling in a UAS Facility Map, up to 400 feet. You can apply up to 90 days in advance of a flight and the approval is coordinated manually through the FAA (available to Part 107 pilots only).
NOTE: Authorizations to operate a drone at night are not available for Recreational Operations. Part 107 pilots may operate a drone at night through LAANC.
Where is LAANC Available?
LAANC is available at over 700 airports. To operate a drone within controlled airspace near an airport not served by LAANC, you must apply for authorization at FAA Drone Zone.
NOTE: If an airport is not within controlled airspace, you do not need FAA authorization to operate a drone near that airport. However, you must still comply with all federal and local regulations that may apply to your drone operation.
Always check NOTAMs, weather, and the schedule for any special events before beginning your drone operation. A LAANC authorization does not grant authorization to operate in any airspace where drone operations are not permitted due to:
▸ Temporary Flight Restrictions
▸ NOTAMs
▸ Events at designated stadiums.
▸ Weather conditions that restrict operations within Class E Surface airspace.
Information provided in this app is based on real-time and available projected information on airspace status and airport-specific maps, and that information is subject to change. Planning tools should be checked prior to flight for any changes that could impact your drone operation.
