## Controlled Airspace
- Chicago O'Hare International Airport (ORD) is surrounded by Class B controlled airspace.
- FAA Authorization: You cannot fly a drone within this airspace without prior authorization from the FAA.
- LAANC: Depending on your exact location relative to the airport, you may be able to request automated authorization through the Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC) system. However, areas immediately surrounding the runways typically have a 0-foot ceiling for automated approvals.
- Safety First: Always maintain visual line of sight and yield the right of way to all manned aircraft.
