Which is true regarding the presence of alcohol within the human body? > Correct Answer > Judgment and decision-making abilities can be adversely affected by even small amounts of alcohol. The numbers 14 and 22 on a runway indicate that the runway is oriented approximately > Correct Answer > 140° and 220° magnetic. Which basic flight maneuver increases the load factor on an airplane as compared to straight-and-level flight? > Correct Answer > Turns Which action is specifically required of the remote pilot prior to each flight? > Correct Answer > Make a plan to keep non-participants clear, indoors, or under cover. Before each flight, the Remote PIC must ensure that > Correct Answer > objects carried on the sUAS are secure. Time-critical information on airports and changes that affect the National Airspace System are provided by > Correct Answer > Notices to Airmen (NOTAMS). (Refer to Figure 22, area 2). At Coeur D'Alene, which frequency should be used as a Common Traffic Advisory Frequency (CTAF) to monitor airport traffic? > Correct Answer > 122.8 MHz. What are characteristics of a moist, unstable air mass? > Correct Answer > Turbulence and showery precipitation. (Refer to Figure 22, area 1.) You have been contracted to photograph Lake Pend Oreille from a vantage point just east of Cocolalla. You notice there is a hill which should provide a good place to take panoramic photographs.
