FAA guidance recommends submitting a waiver application how far in advance of the proposed operation?

• A.At least 7 days in advance
• B.On the morning of the operation
• C.At least 90 days in advance

Why

Because waiver review takes time, FAA guidance is to apply at least 90 days before the operation. Applying a week, or a few hours, ahead leaves no realistic time for review.
