41
Q

Lost data link is established with?

A

The unit assigned to the ranges

42
Q

TUAS lost data link procedures will establish what

A

The deconfliction of all TUAS aircraft for each range by 1000’ MSL

GPS and data link.
Pre-programmed lost data link holding is at 5000 feet MSL

with parachute recovery to the center of the circle of the range being utilized,
