• A. Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability
• B. Light Aircraft Navigation Control
• C. Local Airspace Authorization and Notification Corridor
• D. Low Altitude Network Access and Certification

Answer: (A)

LAANC stands for Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability. It’s an FAA system that automates and speeds up the authorization process for drone flights in controlled airspace around airports. Pilots submit requests, and near real-time approvals or updates are provided, clarifying where you can fly and under what conditions. The other options don’t reflect the official name.
