The Recreational Drone Empowerment Act seeks to clarify and expand the permissible operating areas for limited recreational unmanned aircraft. It specifically amends Section 44809(c)(2)(C) of title 49, United States Code, which outlines exceptions for such operations. The bill modifies the existing language to explicitly include certain Class E airspace , such as Class E airspace above Class G airspace, and Class E airspace designated as an extension to various controlled surface areas. This legislative change aims to provide recreational drone operators with greater flexibility by permitting operations in these additional Class E airspaces, alongside the already permitted Class G airspace, thereby empowering more widespread recreational drone use.
