Airspace authorization required

Salt Lake City International (SLC)

How LAANC works at SLC

The FAA splits the surface area around SLC into a 1 nautical-mile grid. Each cell carries a maximum altitude (in feet AGL) up to which LAANC will auto-approve a Part 107 flight. Cells closest to the runway typically have a 0 ft ceiling — a waiver is required to fly there.
