Pre-Solo Knowledge Test with Answers
What action do you need to take if you are overtaking another aircraft and which
aircraft has the right-of-way? What should you do if you are flying a head-on collision
course with another aircraft? If another single-engine aircraft is converging from the
right, who has the right-of-way? ✔️✔️Overtaking - One being overtaken/Head On - both give
way to their
right/Converging From Right - The one to the right
Except when necessary for takeoffs and landing, what are the minimum safe altitudes
when flying over a congested and other than congested areas? ✔️✔️Congested - 1,000' above
highest obstacle within 2000' radius/Uncongested
