There's an event I want to photograph that is ongoing but also temporal. An ice jam has formed in the Delaware River near Trenton NJ and I'd like to photograph it. I am a certified Part 107 operator.
The location is on the boarder of TTN class D airspace and my operation would be both within and beyond the controlled airspace.
Yesterday evening, I submitted an airspace authorization request through FAADroneZone.faa.gov. I put in for a 7 day window operating from dawn until dusk. As this is a weather phenomena, the opportunity to fly and record the event is fleeting.
In that regard, how long is it taking to receive airspace authorizations through the online system (not waivers which I understand to be more rigorously evaluated)?
