FAA Webinar June 11, 2025 Update on the New Certificates of Waiver, the Previous COAs, and Many Q&As

Описание: Today's episode is with Charles Werner, the FAA's John Meehan and Mike O'Shea along with Jason Day.

John discusses the status on waivers that his group is reviewing and approving, many of which are now waiting on responses from submitting agencies. 58 out of 300 are on hold largely due to illegible entries on the form, so if you're waiting on the FAA, check your inbox and get this cleared up.

Simple waiver requests are being approved in less than a week ... down from a year previously.

There was a glitch in the recording of this video; we apologize for the low resolution.

00:34:38 Dustin Vangeison: I was in a meeting and just hopped on, have you addressed the critical infrastructure restricted drone flights and how that will impact COA's?

00:35:45 Dustin Vangeison: clarification: in regards to the new exec orders.

00:36:04 Lee Malik: How has the "Unleashing American Drone Dominance" changed any of the processes for the waivers? Or will anything change?

00:36:43 Brandon Youngblood: The Sec. 2209 rule is still in the rule making process, so it is not known how it will affect COAs within that airspace, yet.

00:55:29 Jakee Stoltz: Part 107 airspace authorizations are in a better spot than Part 91 airspace authorizations.

00:56:37 Dustin Vangeison: Jake, agreed but what about for situations outside of LAANC auto approvals?
