In which airspaces must a remote pilot, operating under Part 107, obtain permission to enter?

• A. Only classes B C D and E
• B. All airspace
• C. Class G
• D. Class A

Answer: (A)

Airspace authorization is required for operating a small unmanned aircraft in controlled airspace. Under Part 107, you must obtain permission to enter airspace classes B, C, D, and E because these are controlled areas where ATC coordination is needed to ensure safe separation from manned aircraft. You typically get this authorization through systems like LAANC or FAA-approved platforms. Uncontrolled airspace, which is Class G, does not require permission to operate there, as long as you stay within the Part 107 guidelines. Class A is not permitted for Part 107 operations, so you wouldn’t be entering it under this rule set without a different authorization path.
