predominantly by downdrafts? - ANSWERDissipating
18. According to 14 CFR Part 107, the responsibility to inspect the small unmanned
aircraft system (sUAS) to ensure it is in safe operating condition rests with the -
ANSWERRemote Pilot-in-Command.

PIC when operating an sUAS? - ANSWERPerson manipulating the controls.
, 21. (Refer to Figure 26, area 5). The airspace overlying and within 5 miles of Barnes
County Airport is - ANSWERClass G airspace from the surface up to but not
including 700 feet AGL.
12. The amount of excess load that can be imposed on the wing of an airplane
depends upon the - ANSWERspeed of the airplane.

the south of your location. You are located in an open field with no obstructions.
Which of the following is not a concern during this operation? - ANSWERTurbulent
conditions will likely be a significant factor during the operation.

pattern is - ANSWERto enter 45° at the midpoint of the downwind leg at traffic
pattern altitude.

recorded information concerning - ANSWERnon-control information in selected high-
activity terminal areas.

of Binford. What restrictions should the Remote PIC be concerned with prior to
operating the sUAS? - ANSWERRestricted airspace exists around the tower thus
permission is required from the controlling agency.

maximum allowable weight? - ANSWERShortened endurance.
23. Wind shear can exist - ANSWERat all altitudes.
24. In accordance with 14 CFR Part 107, at what maximum altitude can you operate
an sUAS when inspecting a tower with a top at 1,000 feet AGL at close proximity
(within 100 feet)? - ANSWER1,400 feet AGL.
25. While operating around buildings, the remote PIC should be aware of the
creation of wind gusts that - ANSWERchange rapidly in direction and speed causing
turbulence.
26. What are characteristics of a moist, unstable air mass? - ANSWERTurbulence
and showery precipitation.
27. Inbound to an airport with no tower, FSS, or UNICOM in operation, a pilot should
self-announce on MULTICOM frequency - ANSWER122.9
