Airspace Classes
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Class C airspace usually extends up to what altitude? | 4,000 feet above the airport. Class C airspace is generally airspace from the surface to 4,000 feet above the airport elevation (charted in MSL) |
| When a control tower, located on an airport within Class D airspace ceases operation for the day, what happens to the airspace designation? | The airspace reverts to Class E or a combination of Class E and G airspace during the hours the tower is not in operation. |
| (Near the center of the figure) What class of airspace is associated with SIOUX GATEWAY/COL DAY (SUX) Airport? #78 | Class D airspace. The blue dashed line around Sioux City denotes Class D airspace. |
| (Area 1) What type of airspace is Georgetown (E36) located in? #3 Class G. Class D. Class E. | G The airspace below the base of the Class E is Class G because any airspace that is not designated as Class B, C, D, or E is Class G airspace. |
| The lateral dimensions of Class D airspace are based on | the instrument procedures for which the controlled airspace is established. The configuration of each Class D airspace area is individually tailored and when instrument procedures are published, the airspace is normally designed to contain the procedures. |
| (Area 4) What type airspace exists at the top of the 420-foot tower located Southeast of Plantation Airport (JYL)? fig 23 | Class GThe magenta circle denotes Class E airspace inside the circle beginning at 700 feet AGL The airspace below is not designated, and is therefore Class G (uncontrolled) airspace. The top of the tower is therefore below the Class E airspace. |
| (Area 1) A prospective client would like you to use your UA to inspect crops in the area five miles northwest of the town of Binford.

The proposed operation FIG 78 | will take place in Class G airspace, and does not require permission from ATC.The elevation of the towers is 1,335 feet MSL (292 feet AGL). 292 feet AGL is below the 1,200-foot floor of the Class E airspace. Any airspace not designated is Class G airspac |

| The vertical limit of Class D airspace will normally be | up to, and including, 2,500 feet above the airport elevation. Class D airspace normally extends from the surface to 2,500 feet above the airport elevation (charted in MSL) surrounding those airports that have an operational control tower. |
| (Area 3) You have been hired to conduct an inspection of the top of the 1,548-foot tower located southwest of Savanna International Airport (SAV). The proposed operation FIG 23 | requires prior permission from Savannah Approach Control.Permission from ATC is required because the top of the tower is located within Class C controlled airspace, which begins at 1,300 feet MSL (the 41/13 notation means floor of 1,300 feet MSL and ceili |
| Unless otherwise specified, Federal Airways include that Class E airspace extending upward from | 1,200 feet above the surface, up to and including 17,999 feet MSL. Federal airways are Class E airspace that begins at 1,200 feet AGL and ends at 18,000' MSL (where Class A begins). |
| Without prior ATC authorization, you can fly your sUAS below 400 feet above the ground (AGL) | in uncontrolled airspace. Operating in controlled airspace at any altitude is prohibited without prior permission from ATC. |
| When may a person operate a small UA within Class D airspace? | When that person has received prior authorization from ATC.Operating in controlled airspace is prohibited without prior permission from ATC. Controlled airspace is airspace designated as Class B, C, D, or E on the sectional chart. |
| The airspace overlying and within 5 miles of Barnes County Airport is FIG 26 | Class G airspace from the surface to 700 feet AGL. |
| According to 14 CFR part 107 the remote pilot in command (PIC) of a small unmanned aircraft planning to operate within Class C airspace | is required to receive ATC authorization. No person may operate a small unmanned aircraft in Class B, Class C, or Class D airspace or within the lateral boundaries of the surface area of Class E airspace designated for an airport unless PERMISSION |
| The width of a federal airway from either side of the centerline is | 4 nautical miles. |
| According to 14 CFR part 107, how may a remote pilot operate an unmanned aircraft in class C airspace? | The remote pilot must have prior authorization from the Air Traffic Control (ATC) facility having jurisdiction over that airspace. |
| (Area 4) A proposed UA operation requires photographing the 420-foot tower located southeast of Plantation Airport (JYL). Photographing the tower will require the UA to fly between 400 and 500 feet AGL. The proposed operation FIG 23 | does not require prior permission from ATC.The magenta circle denotes Class E airspace inside the circle beginning at 700 feet AGL. The airspace below 700 feet is not designated, and is therefore Class G (uncontrolled) airspace. |
| (Area 4) Operation of a UA to photograph the base of the 1,793-foot tower south of Jamestown Regional Airport (JMS) FIG 26 | requires prior permission from ATC. The tower is located within Class E surface airspace that is established for Jamestown airport (the area bordered by the dashed lines). Per FAR 107.41, prior permission from ATC is require |
