Class B Airspace | Can I Fly my Drone without a Mode C Transponder?
Today we take a couple of questions from a licensed airline transport pilot. He wants to know if he can fly beneath Class B airspace and if he’s allowed to fly his Mavic without a Mode C transponder. We talk about why his SUAS doesn’t need a transponder and why, in this particular case, he is allowed to fly below class B airspace. If you’re looking for a more in-depth guide to FAA regulations, consider taking our Airspace Course. Keep the questions coming and fly safe!
