UAG Drone Test (FAA Part 107) with
Complete Solutions
a dashed magenta line with the number 11 in it - ANSWER-magnetic variation by 11
degrees
advection fog - ANSWER-coastal areas, sea breezes over land mass
Aeronautical Decision Making (ADM) - ANSWER-systematic mental approach to
consistently determine the best course of action in a given situation
airspace class 18,000 - 60,000 feet MSL - ANSWER-Class A airspace
- all flights must be conducted under instrument flight rules (IFR)
applying for a waiver - ANSWER-90 days in advance
-operate from moving vehicle
- visual lines of sight aircraft
- visual observer
- operation of multiple small unmanned aircraft
- operation near aircraft
- operation over people
- operation limitations (speed, altitude, minimum distance)
as humidity increases, the density altitude _______ - ANSWER-increases
- as humidity increases the air becomes less dense because water vapor is lighter than
the surrounding air
at what bank angle do the forces placed on aircraft significantly increase? - ANSWER-
45 degrees
can there be flight through restricted areas on sectional charts? - ANSWER-only with
authorization by FAA (but not really ever with a drone)
can you register drone that is already registered in another country? - ANSWER-No,
need to deregister first
class B airspace - ANSWER-surface up to ceiling of 10,000 ft MSL
- think B for "big" airports who use it
- solid blue line on maps
- must receive prior ATC authorization
- manned aircrafts typically require Mode-C (altitude reporting) transponder
, Class C Airspace - ANSWER-ceiling = 4000 AGL (ground level!)
2 rings
- center (surface) from 0 to 4000 ft AGL (radius 5NM)
- outer (shelf) from 1200-4000 ft AGL (radius 10NM)
Class D Airspace - ANSWER-ceiling 2500 ft AGL (GROUND level)
- at smaller airports that still have a control tower
class D airspace on sectional charts - ANSWER-blue dashed line
Class G Airspace - ANSWER-"free zone" without regulation
from ground to 1200ft AGL (below class E)
*no authorization needed for class G
Cold air holds ___ water vapor than warm air - ANSWER-less
correct radiophrasology for 12,700 feet - ANSWER-one two thousand seven hundred
feet
Crew Resource Management (CRM) - ANSWER-effective use of all available resources
(human, hardware, info) prior to and during flight to ensure successful outcome
dew point - ANSWER-temp where air is completely saturated
does a cold front or warm front move faster? - ANSWER-cold front (25-30 MPH)
warm front (10-20 MPH)
drones to better in ________ air - ANSWER-denser
features of stable air - ANSWER-- smooth air
- poor visibility
- continuous steady precipitation
features of unstable air - ANSWER-- warm, moist
- turbulent
- good visibility
- showery precipitation
- thunderstorms
finding class E airspace on sectional map - ANSWER-dashed or shaded magenta line
