Airspace & ChartsQuestion 53 of 100
A remote pilot is asked to shoot promotional footage outside a college football stadium that seats about 55,000 spectators. Which set of dimensions and times describes the standing sporting event flight restriction?
a.1 NM radius, surface to 1,000 ft AGL, in effect only while the game is being played
b.5 NM radius, surface to 5,000 ft AGL, beginning 2 hours before the scheduled start
c.3 NM radius, surface to 1,000 ft AGL, beginning 30 minutes before the scheduled start
d.3 NM radius, surface to 3,000 ft AGL, from 1 hour before until 1 hour after the event
Explanation
The standing sporting event restriction covers a 3 NM radius from the center of a stadium seating 30,000 or more people, from the surface to 3,000 ft AGL, starting one hour before the scheduled event time and ending one hour after it ends. Section 107.47 requires remote pilots to comply with these notice-to-airmen flight restrictions. The other choices misstate the radius, the vertical limit, or the effective window, and none of them reflects the published restriction.
