Section 1: CASA Regulatory Framework - Part 101, CASR & Operational
Authorizations (Q1-18)
Q1. Under CASR Part 101, an RPA weighing 1.8 kg is operated for commercial aerial
photography by a pilot who does not hold a RePL. Which statement is correct?
A. The operation is automatically legal because the RPA weighs less than 2 kg
B. The operation is permitted only if the RPA is operated in accordance with the
standard operating conditions and the operator holds a ReOC
C. The operation requires a RePL regardless of weight because it is commercial
D. The operation is permitted in any airspace without restriction because the RPA is
under 2 kg
Correct Answer: B. The operation is permitted only if the RPA is operated in
accordance with the standard operating conditions and the operator holds a ReOC
[CORRECT]
Rationale: Under Part 101, excluded RPA (under 2 kg) operated commercially require
the operator to hold a ReOC and comply with standard operating conditions; the
remote pilot does not need a RePL if operating under the operator's ReOC. A RePL is
not automatically required by weight alone for commercial excluded RPA operations,
but the operator must be accredited.
Q2. A RePL holder is operating a 5 kg multirotor RPA under standard operating
conditions. The maximum altitude permitted above ground level (AGL) is:
A. 30 metres
B. 120 metres (400 feet)
C. 90 metres (300 feet)
D. 150 metres (500 feet)
,Correct Answer: B. 120 metres (400 feet) [CORRECT]
Rationale: Standard operating conditions under Part 101 restrict RPA operations to a
maximum of 120 metres (400 feet) AGL unless otherwise authorized. Options A, C,
and D represent incorrect altitude limits that do not reflect CASA's prescribed
standard operating conditions.
Q3. Under CASR Part 101, the minimum distance an RPA must maintain from a
person who is not directly associated with the operation is:
A. 15 metres horizontally
B. 30 metres horizontally
C. 45 metres horizontally
D. 60 metres horizontally
Correct Answer: B. 30 metres horizontally [CORRECT]
Rationale: Standard operating conditions require the RPA to remain at least 30
metres horizontally from any person not directly associated with the operation. This
distance may be reduced for takeoff and landing but not during flight.
Q4. A remote pilot holds a RePL but does not hold an additional flight crew licence.
Under Part 101, the pilot may operate an RPA:
A. In controlled airspace without any additional authorization
B. Within 3 nautical miles of a controlled aerodrome without coordination
C. Only in uncontrolled airspace unless additional authorization is obtained
D. Beyond visual line of sight without a BVLOS authorization
Correct Answer: C. Only in uncontrolled airspace unless additional authorization is
obtained [CORRECT]
Rationale: A RePL holder without a flight crew licence is restricted to uncontrolled
airspace under standard operating conditions. Operations in controlled airspace (A),
,near controlled aerodromes without coordination (B), or BVLOS (D) all require
specific CASA approvals or additional qualifications.
Q5. An operator wishes to fly a 25 kg fixed-wing RPA at night for agricultural survey.
Which regulatory requirement applies?
A. Night operations are permitted under standard operating conditions with anti-
collision lighting
B. A RePL is sufficient; no additional authorization is required for night operations
C. The operation requires a ReOC with specific operational authorization from CASA,
as night flight is not a standard operating condition
D. Only RPA under 2 kg may operate at night
Correct Answer: C. The operation requires a ReOC with specific operational
authorization from CASA, as night flight is not a standard operating condition
[CORRECT]
Rationale: Night operations are excluded from standard operating conditions and
require specific operational authorization from CASA, typically through an ReOC.
Anti-collision lighting alone (A) does not satisfy regulatory requirements, and weight
alone (D) does not determine night authorization.
Q6. Under CASR Part 101.245, which of the following is classified as an "excluded
RPA"?
A. A 3 kg multirotor operated for commercial real estate photography
B. A 1.5 kg multirotor operated for recreational purposes
C. A 7 kg fixed-wing operated for search and rescue under an ReOC
D. A 2.5 kg RPA operated BVLOS with CASA approval
Correct Answer: B. A 1.5 kg multirotor operated for recreational purposes [CORRECT]
Rationale: Part 101.245 specifies that an excluded RPA is one weighing 2 kg or less
operated recreationally. Commercial operations (A), larger RPA (C), and approved
, BVLOS operations (D) fall outside the excluded category and require appropriate
licensing or authorization.
Q7. A pilot is operating under a ReOC near a helicopter landing site (HLS) that is not
at a certified aerodrome. Under standard operating conditions, the pilot must not
operate the RPA within:
A. 15 metres of the HLS
B. 30 metres of the HLS
C. 45 metres of the HLS
D. 60 metres of the HLS
Correct Answer: B. 30 metres of the HLS [CORRECT]
Rationale: Standard operating conditions require RPA to remain at least 30 metres
from a helicopter landing site unless the site is at a certified aerodrome, where
additional restrictions apply. This ensures separation from helicopter operations that
may approach or depart with little warning.
Q8. Which document authorizes an organization to conduct RPA operations beyond
what is permitted under standard operating conditions?
A. Remote Pilot Licence (RePL)
B. Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC)
C. Air Operator Certificate (AOC)
D. Private Pilot Licence (PPL)
Correct Answer: B. Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC) [CORRECT]
Rationale: The ReOC is issued to organizations and authorizes operations beyond
standard operating conditions, including BVLOS, night operations, operations in
controlled airspace, and operations over populated areas. A RePL (A) is an individual
licence, while an AOC (C) and PPL (D) relate to manned aviation.
