## Notices

                  -  Extension: National Authorization for Community Based Safety Organizations approved to manage fixed sites January 2022 – December 2022(PDF)  The FAA has extended the national authorization for Community Based Safety Organizations approved to manage fixed sites under the Exception for Limited Recreational Operations of Unmanned Aircraft. The extension is valid from January 1, 2022 through December 2022. Recreational flyers may continue to fly at these sites without applying for an airspace authorization as long as they fly at or below the maximum allowable altitude for the site and comply with all aspects of the rule.  The full list of approved fixed sites is routinely updated. The sites are also shown as blue dots on the Unmanned Aircraft Systems Facility Maps. More information on how and where you can fly your drone is available here.
