Questions
When construction will be more than 200 feet above ground, or would rise above an imaginary surface around a public airport: a 100:1 slope out to 20,000 feet from runways over 3,200 feet, 50:1 out to 10,000 feet for shorter runways, or 25:1 out to 5,000 feet from heliports.
At least 45 days before construction starts, or before you apply for a construction permit, whichever comes first. If the structure also needs an FCC license, file with the FAA on or before the date you apply to the FCC.
Yes, if it needs FAA notice because it is a physical obstruction. The owner of any antenna structure that requires notice to the FAA must register it with the FCC.
