FAA REMOTE PILOT UAG KNOWLEDGE TEST EXAM | ALL
PRACTICE Q&A 2026/2027 | A+ GRADED |
COMPREHENSIVE EXAM GUIDE 2026&2027
1. A remote pilot is preparing to conduct a commercial drone operation under Part 107.
Which FAA certificate is required to act as the Remote Pilot in Command? A Remote
Pilot Certificate with a small UAS rating.
2. What initial aeronautical knowledge examination must a first-time applicant pass to
qualify for a Part 107 Remote Pilot Certificate? The Unmanned Aircraft General – Small
(UAG) knowledge test.
3. What is the minimum age for a person seeking a Remote Pilot Certificate under Part 107?
16 years old.
4. During a Part 107 operation, who has final responsibility for the safe operation of the
small unmanned aircraft? The Remote Pilot in Command.
5. A remote pilot notices that a planned flight cannot be conducted safely because of
deteriorating weather. What should the pilot do? Delay or discontinue the operation
until it can be conducted safely.
6. What is the primary purpose of the FAA Remote Pilot Airman Certification Standards?
To establish the knowledge and risk-management standards required for a Remote
Pilot Certificate.
7. A small unmanned aircraft weighs less than 55 pounds and is being operated for
compensation. Which FAA regulation generally applies to the operation? 14 CFR Part
107.
8. Before operating a drone under Part 107, what should the Remote PIC determine about
the planned area of operation? Applicable airspace requirements, restrictions, hazards,
and operating limitations.
9. What is the maximum groundspeed normally permitted for a small unmanned aircraft
under Part 107? 100 miles per hour, or 87 knots.
10. What is the normal maximum altitude for a Part 107 small unmanned aircraft? 400 feet
above ground level (AGL), subject to applicable exceptions.
,11. A drone is being flown near a 500-foot-tall structure. What altitude may generally be
permitted when operating within 400 feet of the structure? Up to 400 feet above the
structure's immediate uppermost limit, when the operation remains within 400 feet of
the structure.
12. What is the minimum flight visibility required under the normal Part 107 operating
limitation? At least 3 statute miles from the control station.
13. How far vertically must a small unmanned aircraft normally remain from clouds under
Part 107? 500 feet below the clouds.
14. How far horizontally must a small unmanned aircraft normally remain from clouds under
Part 107? 2,000 feet horizontally.
15. A remote pilot observes a manned aircraft approaching the operating area. What is the
required priority? The remote pilot must yield right-of-way to the manned aircraft.
16. Can a Remote PIC deliberately operate a small unmanned aircraft in a careless or reckless
manner? No.
17. What is the primary purpose of preflight inspection procedures? To determine whether
the aircraft and associated equipment are in a condition suitable for safe flight.
18. A battery shows physical swelling during a preflight inspection. What is the appropriate
action? Remove the battery from service and do not use it for the flight.
19. Why should a remote pilot verify the communications link before takeoff? To ensure
reliable control and monitoring of the aircraft during the operation.
20. A drone's control link becomes intermittent before takeoff. What should the Remote PIC
do? Resolve the communications problem before launching.
21. What is the purpose of the Remote Pilot Certificate? It demonstrates that the pilot has
met FAA knowledge and eligibility requirements for operating under Part 107.
22. How does a Remote PIC maintain aeronautical knowledge recency under current FAA
requirements? By completing the applicable FAA Part 107 recurrent training within the
required 24-calendar-month period.
23. What system is used to obtain an FAA Tracking Number before scheduling the initial
knowledge test? IACRA.
24. What does IACRA stand for? Integrated Airman Certification and Rating Application.
