S2E74 - How Far Is Too Far? Master Airspace Boundaries Like a Pro RPAS Pilot
You’re on the map… but are you inside legal airspace or crossing a line that could cost you your certificate? 🎯
In S2E74 of Sky Commander Academy, we unlock the power of Section 5.3.3: Determining Distances and Airspace Boundaries — one of the most underrated but critical skills for Advanced RPAS pilots.
You’ll learn:
How to measure distances on VNCs using the scale bar (and avoid misreads!)
How to calculate safe standoff distances from aerodromes, heliports, and controlled airspace
Tricks for visualizing Class C vs Class E boundaries without guessing
How to overlay tools in NAV Drone and ForeFlight for faster airspace analysis
Real-world case studies where pilots misjudged boundaries and paid the price
This episode gives you the tools and confidence to plan smarter, fly safer, and stay compliant — even when the boundary lines are thin, curved, or complex.
🧠 Know your limits — literally.
