⚖ Airspace · § 107.47, FAA AIM Chapter 3AIR-003 · 56 of 261

A Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) is in effect over your planned flight area. Under Part 107, you may:

AFly below 400 feet AGL since TFRs only affect manned aircraft
BNot fly in the TFR without specific authorization
CFly if you remain within visual line of sight

Why →TFRs apply to all aircraft, including small UAS. Under 14 CFR § 107.47 and § 91.137-91.145, operating within a TFR without specific authorization is prohibited regardless of altitude or visual line of sight.

The trap →A very common mistake: pilots assume the 400 ft AGL ceiling puts them "below" TFRs. TFRs apply from the surface up. There is no altitude floor that exempts drone operations.

Field note →Check NOTAMs and B4UFLY before every flight. Presidential TFRs can appear with little notice and carry serious legal consequences if violated.
