So LAANC is finally beginning to expand...Yeah! Sort of...
Using Airmap, my home address has two advisories
Advisory 1) Class D airspace with Automated authorization available at or below 400 ft....Yeah!
Advisory 2) Class E2 requiring FAA authorization. Included is a link FAA Part 107 waiver portal. From the FAA... E2 – Class E airspace areas designated as a surface area for an airport
Both advisories are for the exact same airport
The airport in question is chiefly used by corporate jets that NEVER fly over my home. Otherwise, hobby pilots with Cesnas etc... will occasionally fly over head.
Looking at the sectionals, even though my home address is approximately 3 miles from the airport and not in the path of the runway, I am clearly in the class E2 airspace (surface to 3900), so E2 is in effect.
For the heck of it, I was attempting to submit a flight plan through Airmap, when before I could submit the plan a warning appeared stating the request would be rejected upon submission, which it should be.
So yay LAANC, and nay LAANC
