COMPREHENSIVE REMOTE AVIATION
REVIEW SHEET FULL SOLUTIONS
●● Maintaining Your Remote Pilot Certificate
Answer: -Pass a recurrent aeronautical knowledge test every 24 months.
-Conduct a preflight inspection that includes specific aircraft and control
station systems checks, to ensure the small UAS is safe for operation.
-Report an accident to the FAA within 10 calendar days of any operation
that results in serious injury or property damage over $500.
-Make available to the FAA, upon request, the small UAS for inspection
or testing, and any associated documents/records required to be kept
under the proposed rule.
●● Unmanned Aircraft (UA)
Answer: An aircraft operated without the possibility of direct human
intervention from within or on the aircraft
●● Small Unmanned Aircraft
Answer: A UA weighing less than 55 pounds, including everything that
is onboard or otherwise attached to the aircraft, and can be flown
without the possibility of direct human intervention from within or on
the aircraft
,●● Small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS)
Answer: the aircraft PLUS all the other equipment and components,
such as the remote control / transmitter
●● According to 14 CFR Part 107, an sUAS is an unmanned aircraft
system weighing:
Answer: Less than 55 lbs
●● How many days do you have to notify the FAA of your change of
address
Answer: 30 days
●● Unmanned aircraft means an aircraft operated:
Answer: Without the possibility of direct human intervention from
within or on the aircraft
●● Which of the following types of operations are excluded from the
requirements in Part 107
Answer: Model aircraft for hobby use
●● The Part 107 regulations apply to
Answer: Civil unmanned aircraft operations
,●● A person without a Part 107 remote pilot certificate may operate an
sUAS for commercial operations:
Answer: Under the direct supervision of a Remote PIC
●● A person whose sole task is watching the sUAS to report hazards to
the rest of the crew is called
Answer: Visual observer
●● According to 14 CFR Part 107, the responsibility of inspecting a
small unmanned aircraft system (sUAS) lies with the:
Answer: Remote pilot-in-command
●● responsibilities of a remote PIC:
Answer: -assessment of operating environment. (Local weather
conditions, airspace and flight restrictions, location of persons and
property on the surface, and ground hazards.)
-Ensuring all persons directly participating in the small UA operation are
informed about operating conditions, emergency procedures,
contingency procedures, roles and responsibilities of each person
involved in the operation, and potential hazards.
-Ensure that all control links between your Control Station and the small
UA are working properly.
-Ensure there is sufficient power to continue controlled flight operations
to a normal landing
, -Ensure that any object attached or carried by the small UA is secure that
does not adversely affect performance.
-Ensure all necessary documentation is available for inspection (remote
PIC's remote pilot certificate, aircraft registration if required, and
Certificate of Waiver (CoW) if applicable).
●● While you don't have a Part 107 license, you're planning to use a
buddy box system with a certified remote PIC to conduct a commercial
operation together. How would this work?
Answer: You'd need to have two control stations set up, where the
remote PIC could take over flight operations immediately with the flip
of a switch.
●● T or F: Even if you don't have a Remote Pilot Certificate, you can
operate an sUAS under Part 107 as long as you are being directly
supervised by a remote PIC who has met the recurrent testing/training
requirement; and the remote PIC has the ability to immediately take
direct control of the sUAS.
Answer: True
●● Visual Observer
Answer: alerts the rest of the crew about potential hazards during sUAS
operations. the remote PIC may use one or more VOs to supplement
situational awareness and visual-line-of-sight responsibilities while the
remote PIC is conducting other mission-critical duties (such as checking
displays).
