⩥ Public vs. Civil. Answer: public- governmental
civil- non-governmental
⩥ NAS for hire do you need a remote pilot certificate. Answer: yes
⩥ VTAL what makes it vertical takeoff and landing (think about harrier).
Answer: Require much less space for launch and recovery
⩥ Visual line of sight as a method of flying and what that entails (do you
have to use a visual observer? No but if you can't see it in your line of
sight then you need one). Answer: UAS used for recreation or hobby
must be flown within VLOS of the remote pilot
If you are flying BVLOS then you must have a visual observer
⩥ First person view (googles) causes some issues it is not permitted in
the NAS unless you have a waiver. Answer: Can only use them for
commercial purposes
Those flying for hobbyist or recreational cannot use first person view
googles

(150-156). Answer: permits ops below 400 ft AGL
must maintain
5 NM from airport with control tower
3 NM from an airport with a published instrument flight produce but no
operational tower
2 NM from an airport without instrument... or operational tower
2 NM from a heliport, glider port or seaplane base
⩥ FAA manages public use COA through its online system (T or F).
Answer: True
⩥ sUAS under a COA you have to do certain things (151). Answer: you
have to file a NOTAM
⩥ Rotary wing configuration (3 types) (71-73). Answer: Single-
helicopter
Dual-
Multirotor- most popular
⩥ Fixed pitch prop is the simplest design. Answer: True
⩥ Benefits of Vertical takeoff and landing (2 things). Answer: Smaller
