I keep seeing folks mention waivers for operating in controlled airspace and I'm looking specifically at the FAA 107.41 rule that states...
" No person May operate small unmanned aircraft in class B class C or class D airspace or within the lateral boundaries of the surface area of class E air space designated for an airport unless that person has prior authorization from air traffic control"
My question is... If you are getting clearance from ATC why would you need the waiver? The way the rule and the waiver reads is that you would need the waiver to "deviate" from 107.41...not comply with it.
Is this accurate or am I missing something? If accurate what is the advantage of having a waiver?
