necessary
Provided no property is carried for compensation or hire, an operator may fly an UAS from a moving
vehicle if the UAS is: - Answers Operated over a sparsely-populated area
What effect does a low density altitude have on the efficiency of a UAS propeller? - Answers The
propeller efficiency will be increased
The time is 1200Z. What is the local time in February (Central Standard Time)? - Answers 0600 CST Zulu

Prior to a flight requiring a visual observer, the PIC and the VO go over the mission so that each know
what to expect, and what to be alert for. This kind of planning is an example of: - Answers Crew
Resource Management (CRM)
A UAV pilot is showing off his flying skills performing potentially hazardous maneuvers to several friends.
This is an example of: - Answers Machismo
Evening Civil Twilight ends - Answers 30 minutes after official sunset
Control Station - Answers an interface used by the remote pilot to control the flight path of the small,
unmanned aircraft
Corrective Lenses - Answers Spectacles or contact lenses.
Declaration of compliance - Answers A record submitted to the FAA that certifies the small unmanned
aircraft conforms to the category 2 or category 3 requirements under subpart D of this part.
Small Unmanned Aircraft (Small UA) - Answers unmanned aircraft weighing less than 55 pounds on
takeoff, including everything that is on board
Small Unmanned Aircraft System (sUAS) - Answers A small Unmanned Aircraft (UA) and its associated
elements, including communication links and the components that control the small UA, that are
required for the safe and efficient operation of the small UA in the National Airspace System (NAS). To
reiterate, the difference between the Small Unmanned Aircraft and the Small Unmanned Aircraft System
is simply that the system is the aircraft PLUS all the other equipment and components, such as the
remote control / transmitter
Unmanned Aircraft (UA) - Answers means an aircraft operated without the possibility of direct human
intervention from within or on the aircraft.
Visual Observer - Answers watch the sUAS and report potential hazards to the rest of the crew
, Remote Pilot in command - Answers -direct responsibility and final authority

Answers aircraft has lighted anti-collision lighting visible for at least 3 statute miles that has a flash rate
sufficient to avoid a collision
With vision that is unaided by any device other than corrective lenses, the remote pilot in command, the
visual observer (if one is used), and the person manipulating the flight control of the small, unmanned
aircraft system must be able to see the unmanned aircraft throughout the entire flight in order to: -
Answers Know the aircraft's location, determine attitude, altitude and direction, observe airspace for
other air traffic or hazards, and determine not endangerments of like or property
Right-of-way rules - Answers small unmanned aircraft must yield to the right of wat to all aircraft
NO operation over human beings - Answers Unless they are participating in the flight or covered by a
roof
Operation in certain air space - Answers No person may operate a small unmanned aircraft in Class B,
Class C, or Class D airspace or within the lateral boundaries of the surface area of Class E airspace
designated for an airport unless that person has prior authorization from Air Traffic Control (ATC).
