[QUOTE="Heckmaniac, post: 108472, member: 13177"] So this is also a hot topic on the Autelpilots.com forum that im on as well. Several responded that they called their local FSDO and I quote "Just got off the horn with my FSDO in SLC. They said the same thing. Non-certificated UAS operators do fall under 107 and are prohibited from night flight. Certificated 107 operators need a waiver. The process is on the [URL='https://www.faa.gov/uas']FAA UAS Web Portal[/URL] You'll need to fill out online forms and send physical copies to D.C. And, this is something I was unaware of, but Part 101 was rescinded." According to them a hobbiest flying in class G airspace still needs a waiver to fly at night. I plan on calling my FSDO this week to clarify and hear for myself as I have been regularly flying at night using strobe anti-collision lighting thinking I was legal - evidently I'm not. [/QUOTE]
