Drone Test Flashcards
To get a complete weather overview for the planned flight, the remote pilot in command should obtain
A standard briefing
Which statement about longitude and latitude is true?
lines of longitude cross the Equator at right angles
While operating sUAS just south of a controlled airport with authorization, ATC notifies you to stay clear of the runway 6 final approach course. What action should you take to comply with this request?
Stay clear of areas to the west and south of your area of operation
While monitoring the Cooperstown CTAF you hear an aircraft announce that they are midfield left downwind to RWY 31. Where would the aircraft be relative to the runway? Figure 26, area 2
The aircraft is South. **
The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane depends upon the
abruptness at which the load is applied
The angle of attack at which an airfoil stalls will
remain the same regardless of gross weight
(Refer to Appendix 2, Figure 71, point 1) The floor of the Class E airspace above Georgetown airport (E36) is at
3823 feet MSL **
Where would you go to obtain more information about restricted airspace R-2531? Figure 74, area 3
Notes to Sectional Charts
If sunset is 1927 and the end of evening civil twilight is 30 minutes later, when must a remote pilot flying a sUAS with a collision avoidance light visible for at least 3 miles terminate the flight?
No requirement to terminate
(Refer to Appendix 2, Figure 24, area 2) Operating an sUAS can you vertically clear the obstacle on the southeast side of Winnsboro airport?
No **
Which weather phenomenon signals the beginning of the mature stage of a thunderstorm?
Precipitation beginning to fall
An increase in load factor will cause an unmanned aircraft to:
stall at a higher airspeed
The effective use of all available resources human, hardware, an information prior to and during flight to ensure the successful outcome of the operation is called
crew resource management
How tall is the tower under construction in the group of towers approximately 15 statute miles south of Minot International Airport? Figure 21, area
2879′ MSL **
No person may attempt to act as a crew member of a sUAS with
an alcoholic concentration of .04 or greater in a blood or breath specimen
The FAA publication that provides the aviation community with basic flight information and Air Traffic Control procedures for use in the National Airspace System of the US is
Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM)
What should a remote pilot do if the sUAS they are operating collides with a bird or wildlife?
File an accident report with the NTSB
An ATC radar facility issues the following advisory to a pilot flying on a heading of 090 deg. “UNMANNED AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS 3 O’CLOCK, 2 MILES WEST BOUND…” Where should the Remote PIC (also visual observer and other Crewmembers if applicable) look for this traffic in the reference to the UA?
North **
It is 7:00 am. Official sunrise is at 7:40 am. Your UAV does not have any anti-collision lighting. How long do you need to wait before you can fly under Part 107?
40 minutes
What measurement can be used to determine the stability of the atmosphere?
Temperature lapse rate
The FAA publication that provides the aviation community with basic flight information and Air Traffic Control procedures for use in the National Airspace System of the US is
Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM)
(Refer to Appendix A, Figure 69) What does the line of longitude at area 7 measure?
The degrees of longitude east and west of the Prime Meridian
(Refer to Appendix 2, Figure 26, area 2) While monitoring the Cooperstown CTAF you hear an aircraft announce that they are midfield left downwind to RWY 13. Where would the aircraft be relative to the runway?
The aircraft is East
Refer to Appendix 2 Figure 21, area 1) What is the height of the tallest tower in the group of towers 13 miles south of Minot?
1081 AGL
When must a current remote pilot certificate be in the pilot’s personal possession?
Anytime when acting as PIC or as a required pilot flight crewmember
Which is considered to be the most hazardous condition when flying an sUAS in the vicinity of thunderstorms?
Lightening
Automatic Terminal Information Service (ATIS) is the continuous broadcast of recorded information concerning
non control information in selected high activity terminal areas
An increase in load factor will cause an unmanned aircraft to:
stall at a higher airspeed
An ATC radar facility issues the following advisory to a pilot flying on a heading of 090 deg. “UNMANNED AIRCRAFT OPERATIONS 3 O’CLOCK, 2 MILES WEST BOUND…” Where should the Remote PIC (also visual observer and other Crewmembers if applicable) look for this traffic in the reference to the UA?
West
What does the line of latitude at area 4 measure?
The degrees of latitude north and south of the equator.
You have been hired by a farmer to use your small UA to inspect his crops. The area that you are to survey is in the Devil`s Lake West MOA, east of area 2. How would you find out if the MOA is active?
Refer to the chart legend.
