## Key facts

| Fact | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Practice area | [Aviation, Drones & Space](https://ailawframework.com/practice/aviation-drones-and-space.md) |
| Human involvement | Yellow: Lawyer and AI draft together |
| How AI is used | List the place, the time, the altitude, and the section in § 107.205 that the lawyer says the operation would depart from. Do not write the safety justification and do not say a waiver will be issued. |
| What the lawyer must review | You write the request. Section 107.200(a) says the Administrator may issue a certificate of waiver from a regulation specified in § 107.205 if the Administrator finds the proposed operation can safely be conducted under the terms of the certificate. Section 107.200(b) says a request must contain a complete description of the proposed operation and a justification that establishes that the operation can safely be conducted under those terms. The Administrator may prescribe additional limitations. A person who receives a certificate may deviate only to the extent it specifies and must comply with its conditions. Section 107.205 lists the regulations that may be waived, including §§ 107.25, 107.29(a)(2) and (b), 107.31, 107.33, 107.35, 107.37(a), 107.39, 107.41, 107.51, and 107.145, with the limits the section states on §§ 107.25 and 107.31. A rule that is not on that list is not proposed for waiver. The safety justification is yours. The tool does not write it. |

## Checking plan

- What the AI does: List the place, the time, the altitude, and the section in § 107.205 that the lawyer says the operation would depart from. Do not write the safety justification and do not say a waiver will be issued.
- Basis: Checked against the linked sources on 22 October 2026. Confirm the current instrument before reliance.

## Notes

- Do not ask to waive a rule that § 107.205 does not list.
- The two limits in § 107.205, on carriage of property for compensation or hire, are read before a § 107.25 or § 107.31 waiver is requested.
