Grid Altitude Meaning

A facility map grid shows 200 over a neighborhood inside Class C airspace. A flight planned at 150 feet AGL there

  • A.is outside controlled airspace and needs nothing
  • B.is prohibited because the grid value is a minimum altitude
  • C.may be authorized through LAANC at or below the 200-foot grid value
Correct answer

C. may be authorized through LAANC at or below the 200-foot grid value

Why

The grid value is the maximum altitude for LAANC approval in that square, so a 150-foot request falls within the 200-foot ceiling for that area. The flight is still inside Class C, so authorization is still required before flying.
