FYI, my first time requesting controlled airspace flight authorization for my MPP went fine today, via AirMap. Flight plan up to 50ft AGL was authorized within minutes (maybe even just one), fine for the low altitude photos I wanted over Angle Lake, just one mile east of Seattle's runway.
Takeoff also required clicking through DJI Go authorized zone unlock validation, with live connection to my online DJI profile. I also received a warning about being near an NFZ, not sure why, though.
Pretty sophisticated new system, considering complex airspace around Seattle -- check out these screenshots! Under previous FAA rec flyer rules, this location mandated a call to SeaTac control tower.
Kudos to the FAA, AirMap, and DJI!
