What types of flight operations can be exceeded with the granting of Certificates of Waiver?

• A. Operations in restricted airspace
• B. Operations in certain airspace, Flying over spectators, BLOS operations
• C. Only night operations
• D. Any operation is allowed

Answer: (B)

Certificates of Waiver let you depart from certain Part 107 restrictions when you present a safe plan and obtain FAA approval. This means you can perform specific flights that would normally be prohibited, such as operating in airspace where you’ve been given authorization, flying over people, and conducting beyond-visual-line-of-sight missions. Those kinds of operations are the ones that can be permitted when a waiver is granted, which is why the best answer includes operations in authorized airspace, flight over spectators, and BVLOS operations. Entry into restricted airspace isn’t automatically granted by a waiver—you still need the proper ATC clearance or authorization—and night operations require their own waiver as well, so none of these are automatically allowed or unlimited.
