Aerobatic WaiversIAC Government Relations Representatives | Government Relations Region Map | Applying for an aerobatic practice box or contest box waiver? You’ll need to apply through your local Flight Service District Office (FSDO) for an FAA Form 7711-1 Certificate of Waiver or Authorization which can be found in Chapter 48 (see page 11) of the FAA’s General Aviation Operations Inspector’s (GAOI) Handbook. Requirements for obtaining a practice area waiver and/or contest box waiver are also spelled out in Chapter 48. The IAC has three Regional Government Relations Representatives and one National representative to assist you in applying for and/or renewing aerobatic practice box and/or contest box waivers. If you are requesting a new waiver and have not applied for a waiver previously, it might be a good idea to have one of the representatives look over the application before you submit it to your local FSDO. When you send the application to your local FSDO, make a note of the date. Keep a call log for each time you call the FSDO to follow up (if needed) on the progress of the waiver. Note the date, time and person you spoke with as well as the outcome of the call. The waiver application process should take no more than 30 days. If you are having trouble establishing a box or renewing an existing waiver (due to noise complaints for instance), please call your regional Government Relations Representative first...long before you get into a disagreement with the local FSDO or think about taking the matter to the regional FAA office. Let your representative communicate with the FSDO and take the matter higher, if needed. For further assistance in dealing with contest and/or practice area waivers, contact: IAC Government Relations Representatives Western U.S. Region Representative Central U.S. Region Representative Eastern U.S. Region Representative U.S. National Representative |
