I'm a beginner considering buying a Mavic Air 2. I've been reading up on FAA rules and am not sure I understand them.
I live in a small town with a municipal airport right in the middle. My house is in a zone E2, even though it's not next to the airport or near the flight path. On the maps and apps I've tried, the ceiling shows as '0'.
Does this mean I'll be unable to fly in my back yard, even if I request a LAANC permission? My aim would only be short flights well under 100' just to learn to control the drone.
I guess my basic question is, do the ceiling indications on the map indicate absolute limits, or can I apply for permission to fly for recreational purposes?
Thanks in advance for any advice.
