FAA Part 107 Flashcards: Remote Pilot Knowledge Test Review
Review the current FAA Part 107 knowledge areas with concise recall, practical scenarios, airspace and weather interpretation, operating limits, and recency rules.
Bu deste hakkında
Prepare for the FAA Remote Pilot knowledge test and keep core Part 107 decisions fresh. These 286 independently written cards cover every current ACS knowledge area, moving from foundational rules into airspace, weather reports, aircraft loading and performance, airport awareness, emergencies, operations over people, Remote ID, aeronautical decision-making, maintenance, and recurrent knowledge.
The cards practice rule-to-action, cue-to-meaning, code-to-interpretation, and short scenario-to-decision recall. Most prompts isolate one fact or decision; a few compact sets cover material learners naturally recall together, such as phonetic-alphabet chunks and radio phraseology. Unhelpful reverse variants and chart-dependent problems are excluded. The deterministic sequence teaches prerequisites before dependent ideas, interleaves the five public groups, and separates confusing variants. Initial certification and recurrent training are treated as separate paths, with current requirements reviewed against official sources on August 25, 2026. FAA-S-ACS-10B remains the current indexed topic guide; the current UAG Applicant Information Bulletin governs test distribution.
License scope: “Common knowledge · CC0 1.0” applies only to this deck’s independently written prompts, answers, examples, organization, and metadata, to the extent rights exist. It does not claim ownership of facts, laws, FAA names or publications, third-party marks, or source material.
Independent and unofficial; not affiliated with, endorsed by, or produced by the FAA, DOT, PSI, or any testing provider. No FAA or competitor test questions, answer choices, commercial-deck text, charts, logos, or third-party media were copied. Regulatory definitions and rules were independently condensed and may retain legally necessary terminology. Verify current requirements with the FAA certification path, Remote Pilot ACS, current UAG Applicant Information Bulletin, FAA study guide, and 14 CFR Part 107.

Cevap
Preflight risk into Pilot, Aircraft, enVironment, and External pressures.
Kart 149
Soru
What load factor occurs in a coordinated 60-degree level turn?
Cevap
2 G. The aircraft must produce lift equal to twice its weight to hold altitude.
Kart 150
Soru
What rule applies near any airport without controlled-airspace authorization requirements?
Cevap
The operation still may not interfere with airport traffic patterns or operations.
Kart 151
Soru
How does traffic awareness differ with an operating tower versus a closed or nontowered airport?
Cevap
With an operating tower, monitor its published frequency and use the traffic picture it provides. When the tower is closed or absent, use the published CTAF and nontowered procedures. Monitoring never authorizes the UAS or replaces visual vigilance and other Part 107 duties.
Kart 152
Soru
What does an alert area signal?
Cevap
A high volume of pilot training or unusual aerial activity. All pilots remain responsible for collision avoidance.
Kart 153
Soru
What does IMSAFE check?
Cevap
Personal fitness through Illness, Medication, Stress, Alcohol, Fatigue, and Emotion.
Kart 154
Soru
How do TEMPO and PROB30 differ in a TAF?
Cevap
TEMPO describes temporary fluctuations during a period; PROB30 gives a 30 percent probability of specified conditions during its period.
Kart 155
Soru
What is needed to enter prohibited or restricted airspace?
Cevap
Permission from the using or controlling agency, as applicable, in addition to compliance with other requirements.
Kart 156
Soru
How are altitude, direction, speed, and time normally spoken on aviation radio?
Cevap
Use distinct digits and the standard label: 12,500 is “one two thousand five hundred”; heading 270 is “heading two seven zero”; 15 knots is “one five knots”; 0930 UTC is “zero niner three zero Zulu.”
Kart 157
Soru
What are the three steps of the 3P model?
Cevap
Perceive hazards, Process their effect on safety, and Perform the best risk control. Repeat as conditions change.
Kart 158
Soru
What must a remote PIC do about a temporary flight restriction?
Cevap
Check current NOTAMs before flight and comply with the TFR unless specifically authorized otherwise.
Kart 159
Soru
For §107.9 reporting, what counts as a serious injury?
Cevap
An injury at Abbreviated Injury Scale Level 3 or higher. Loss of consciousness remains a separate reporting trigger even without that injury classification.
Kart 160
Soru
Why is a controlled firing area not charted?
Cevap
Its hazardous activity must stop when a spotter, radar, or lookout detects an approaching aircraft, so nonparticipating aircraft need not reroute around it.
Kart 161
Soru
What are the legs and normal turn direction of a standard airport traffic pattern?
Cevap
Departure, upwind, crosswind, downwind, base, and final approach are distinct components; upwind is not another name for departure. Standard traffic uses left turns unless airport markings or current publications specify otherwise.
Kart 162
Soru
What does a Convective SIGMET warn about?
Cevap
Significant convective hazards such as severe, embedded, or organized thunderstorms, including qualifying hail, wind, or tornado risk.
Kart 163
Soru
How do CARE and TEAM support a risk decision?
Cevap
CARE processes Consequences, Alternatives, Reality, and External factors; TEAM chooses to Transfer, Eliminate, Accept, or Mitigate the risk.
Kart 164
Soru
What must preflight familiarization cover?
Cevap
Local weather, airspace and restrictions, people and property, ground hazards, crew roles, control links, power, attachments, and the aircraft's condition.
Kart 165
Soru
What night-lighting check belongs in the preflight inspection?
Cevap
Verify that the required anti-collision light works, is positioned and rated to remain visible for at least 3 statute miles, and has enough power for the planned flight and landing.
Kart 166
Soru
How does increased load factor affect fixed-wing stall speed?
Cevap
Stall speed rises with the square root of load factor, so steep or abrupt maneuvers can cause a stall at a higher airspeed.
Kart 167
Soru
What does an MTR identifier reveal?
Cevap
IR denotes an IFR route, and VR denotes a VFR route. Four digits mean no route segment is above 1,500 feet AGL, while three digits mean at least one segment is above 1,500 feet AGL; a trailing letter may identify an alternate route. Expect fast, low-altitude military traffic.
Kart 168
Soru
What extra limits apply when transporting property for compensation under Part 107?
Cevap
The transport must stay wholly within one State, territory, or U.S. possession, or within the District of Columbia. It must also remain within visual line of sight, use no moving vehicle, and keep the aircraft plus property under 55 pounds.

Kart 173
Soru
What should a remote pilot do about birds or other wildlife near the route?
Cevap
Avoid known concentrations and migration activity, then divert or land before a conflict develops. Report any wildlife strike through the FAA Wildlife Strike Database or Form 5200-7.
Kart 174
Soru
What is situational awareness?
Cevap
An accurate understanding of the aircraft, crew, environment, mission, and how those conditions are likely to change.
Kart 175
Soru
What colors normally distinguish runway and taxiway markings?
Cevap
Runway markings are white; taxiway markings are yellow. Holding-position markings are also yellow, even when placed on a runway.
Kart 176
Soru
How does high density altitude affect a small UAS?
Cevap
Thinner air reduces propeller, wing, and cooling performance, often lowering payload, climb rate, and endurance.
Kart 177
Soru
What is single-pilot resource management?
Cevap
Managing every available resource before and during flight so one pilot can maintain awareness, control workload, assess risk, and decide well.
Kart 178
Soru
Which conditions raise density altitude?
Cevap
Higher elevation or lower pressure, higher temperature, and higher humidity.
Kart 179
Soru
What is the minimum age for a remote pilot certificate?
Cevap
- The applicant normally must also read, speak, write, and understand English and have no disqualifying physical or mental condition. If a medical reason prevents meeting an English requirement, the FAA may place operating limitations on the certificate.
Kart 180
Soru
What is an early sign of task saturation?
Cevap
Working harder while accomplishing less, missing inputs, or fixating on one item. Stop, slow down, prioritize, and reduce workload.
Kart 181
Soru
May ADS-B Out be transmitted during a Part 107 operation?
Cevap
Not unless the FAA authorizes or directs it. ADS-B Out is also not a substitute for Remote ID.
Kart 182
Soru
Where should a pilot look for frequent parachute-jump activity?
Cevap
The sectional chart and current Chart Supplement, then current NOTAMs for time-sensitive activity.
Kart 183
Soru
Why should a small UAS never fly beneath an unmanned free balloon?
Cevap
Its payload suspension or trailing antenna may be hard to see and extend below the balloon. Stay well clear rather than passing underneath.
Kart 184
Soru
What personal equipment should a remote pilot prepare for night operations?
Cevap
Keep a reliable dimmable white or red flashlight, fresh or spare batteries, and needed charts and checklists accessible. This is an operator-equipment recommendation, separate from the aircraft-lighting rule in §107.29.
Kart 185
Soru
Why does high humidity reduce aircraft performance?
Cevap
Moist air is less dense than dry air, so the propellers or wings produce less force under otherwise equal conditions.
Kart 186
Soru
Why are external pressures dangerous?
Cevap
Schedule, client, money, or pride can make a pilot discount weather, condition, or skill limits. A preplanned cancellation rule protects the decision.
Kart 187
Soru
May someone take the initial Part 107 knowledge test before age 16?
Cevap
Yes, at age 14 or older. Certificate eligibility still begins at age 16.
Kart 188

Soru
Why can high temperature shorten a battery-powered flight?
Cevap
The aircraft may need more power in less-dense air while the battery and electronics face greater thermal stress.
Kart 190
Soru
How should the anti-authority attitude be countered?
Cevap
Pause and follow the applicable rule or procedure; do not dismiss it merely because someone else imposed it.
Kart 191
Soru
What is a TRSA?
Cevap
A Terminal Radar Service Area where participating pilots may receive additional radar services. Participation is voluntary, and the underlying airspace classes still control Part 107 authorization.
Kart 192
Soru
What do common airport beacon colors identify?
Cevap
A white-and-green beacon identifies a lighted land airport; a white-and-yellow beacon identifies a lighted water airport or seaplane base; and a green-yellow-white beacon identifies a lighted heliport.
Kart 193
Soru
What alternative initial path is available to a qualifying Part 61 pilot?
Cevap
With a current Part 61 certificate and a flight review within the preceding 24 calendar months, complete the FAA initial online course and identity-validation process.
Kart 194
Soru
What can a rapidly falling barometric pressure signal?
Cevap
Approaching poor weather or a developing storm system. It is a trend to investigate, not a go/no-go answer by itself.
Kart 195
Soru
How should impulsivity be countered?
Cevap
Slow down long enough to identify the hazard, options, and safest next action.
Kart 196
Soru
What is a National Security Area?
Cevap
Airspace where pilots are asked to avoid flight to protect sensitive ground facilities; a NOTAM may temporarily make avoidance mandatory.
Kart 197
Soru
What should a remote pilot extract from tower transmissions?
Cevap
Identify the aircraft, its position or runway, direction, altitude when stated, and the controller's instruction or the pilot's intention. Use that traffic picture to remain clear; monitoring does not authorize the UAS or replace visual vigilance.
Kart 198
Soru
How recent must Part 107 aeronautical knowledge be?
Cevap
The remote pilot must have completed an accepted initial or recurrent path within the preceding 24 calendar months.
Kart 199
Soru
How does a strong headwind affect the return leg?
Cevap
It lowers groundspeed and increases the time and energy needed to return. Plan reserve for the worst expected leg, not the easy outbound leg.
Kart 200
Soru
How should invulnerability be countered?
Cevap
Treat the hazard as personally relevant: the same failure can happen on this flight.
Kart 201
Soru
How do stable and unstable air usually differ?
Cevap
Stable air favors smooth conditions, stratiform clouds, haze, and steady precipitation; unstable air favors turbulence, vertical clouds, and showery precipitation.
Kart 202
Soru
Which current FAA recurrent courses serve Part 107 pilots?
Cevap
ALC-677 is available to Part 107 certificate holders generally; ALC-515 is the recurrent path for a qualifying current Part 61 pilot with a current flight review.
Kart 203
Soru
What is a published VFR route?
Cevap
A charted route for moving around, under, or through complex airspace. It does not by itself authorize a Part 107 operation.
Kart 204
Soru
What do red, green, and white position lights reveal about a crewed aircraft?
Cevap
Red marks its left side, green its right side, and white its tail. Use the pattern to judge direction; red on your right and green on your left can indicate that the aircraft is coming toward you.
Kart 205
Soru
How should a macho attitude be countered?
Cevap
Reject the need to prove skill by taking risk; conservative choices demonstrate sound command.
Kart 206
Soru
What is a temperature inversion?
Cevap
A layer where temperature increases with altitude. It is stable and can trap fog, haze, smoke, and pollutants near the surface.
Kart 207
Soru
How long can full dark adaptation take?
Cevap
About 30 minutes in darkness. Bright light can undo it within seconds, so protect night vision before and during the operation.
Kart 208
Soru
Does a current remote pilot retake the UAG test for routine recency?
Cevap
No. Current FAA recurrent training is completed online; the old recurrent knowledge-test model is obsolete.

What counts toward the 55-pound small-UA limit?
Cevap
The aircraft and everything on board or attached at takeoff, including payload, guards, lights, and a Remote ID module.
Kart 210
Soru
How soon may an applicant retake a failed Part 107 knowledge test?
Cevap
After 14 calendar days.
Kart 211
Soru
How do source regions shape an air mass?
Cevap
The source region sets the air mass's basic temperature and moisture: continental air is dry, maritime air is moist, polar air is cold, and tropical air is warm.
Kart 212
Soru
How should resignation be countered?
Cevap
Identify the actions and resources still available; the pilot can change the outcome.
Kart 213
Soru
What happens 30 days after a permanent mailing-address change?
Cevap
The remote pilot may no longer exercise certificate privileges until the FAA has been notified of the new address.
Kart 214
Soru
How can dehydration or heat stress affect a remote pilot?
Cevap
It can cause headache, cramps, dizziness, fatigue, poor concentration, and eventually collapse. Hydrate, cool down, and stop before judgment degrades.
Kart 215
Soru
Why must NOTAMs be checked even with a current sectional?
Cevap
They carry time-critical changes such as TFRs, closures, outages, hazards, and procedures that may not appear on the chart.
Kart 216
Soru
How can precipitation static affect a small UAS?
Cevap
Charge from rain, snow, fog, dust, or similar particles can interfere with radios, sensors, or the control link. Avoid the condition and follow the aircraft's limits rather than relying on recovery after interference starts.
Kart 217
Soru
How long may a temporary remote pilot certificate remain effective?
Cevap
Up to 120 calendar days. It ends sooner at the earliest of its printed expiration date, receipt of the permanent certificate, or receipt of notice that the sought certificate is denied or revoked.
Kart 218
Soru
What can follow cheating on a Part 107 knowledge test?
Cevap
For one year, the person is prohibited from applying for any FAA certificate, rating, or authorization and from applying for or taking any FAA test. A held certificate or rating may also be suspended or revoked.
Kart 219
Soru
How can operational stress affect a remote pilot?
Cevap
It can narrow attention, cause fixation or haste, and degrade judgment. Reduce workload, pause and reassess, or delay or cancel the flight when stress compromises safe decisions.
Kart 220
Soru
What do basic runway and taxiway light colors mean?
Cevap
Runway edge lights are normally white and taxiway edge lights blue. Threshold lights show green toward an arriving aircraft, while runway-end lights show red toward the runway.
Kart 221
Soru
What should a pilot do when hyperventilating?
Cevap
Recognize the rapid breathing, consciously slow the breathing rate, speak or breathe deliberately, and stop the operation if normal function does not return.
Kart 222
Soru
What should a night-flight contingency plan decide?
Cevap
How to stop or land safely after loss of required lighting, visual orientation, control link, or a safe view of traffic and obstacles. Preselect a suitable recovery area and brief the trigger for ending the flight.
Kart 223
Soru
What does a narrowing temperature–dew point spread suggest?
Cevap
Air is approaching saturation, increasing the chance of fog, low clouds, dew, or precipitation.
Kart 224
Soru
Does a remote pilot certificate itself expire?
Cevap
No, but its privileges require current aeronautical knowledge within the preceding 24 calendar months.
Kart 225
Soru
How do mandatory-instruction and location signs differ?
Cevap
Mandatory-instruction signs have a red background with a white inscription. Location signs have a black background with a yellow inscription and border.

Cevap
It is an FAA system for requesting near-real-time Part 107 airspace authorization at participating facilities, subject to the published altitude grid and operating conditions.
Kart 227
Soru
How should a new medication be handled before flight?
Cevap
Do not assume over-the-counter means safe. Check the condition and medication effects, allow time to identify side effects, and avoid flying if judgment or alertness may be impaired.
Kart 228
Soru
What must a Part 107 waiver applicant demonstrate?
Cevap
That the proposed operation can be conducted safely under the waiver's terms and conditions.
Kart 229
Soru
How can fog form near the surface?
Cevap
When air cools to its dew point, moisture is added, or moist air moves over a colder surface. Light wind can help mix a shallow layer; strong wind may lift it into low stratus.
Kart 230
Soru
What must be checked after attaching a payload?
Cevap
Total weight, center of gravity, security of attachment, control response, power demand, clearances, and any category or manufacturer limits.
Kart 231
Soru
Why can fatigue be hard to self-detect?
Cevap
It reduces attention, coordination, communication, and judgment while also weakening the person's ability to recognize that decline.
Kart 232
Soru
What do common obstruction-lighting systems look like at night?
Cevap
Aviation-red systems show red lights at night. Flashing-white systems use white lights, with reduced night intensity where applicable. Dual systems use white lights by day and red lights at night.
Kart 233
Soru
Does a Part 107 waiver suspend every operating rule?
Cevap
No. It applies only to the specifically waived sections and remains subject to all listed conditions and limitations.
Kart 234
Soru
Does an airspace authorization waive other Part 107 rules?
Cevap
No. It permits the specified controlled-airspace operation but does not waive altitude, VLOS, weather, TFR, airport-interference, or other requirements.
Kart 235
Soru
How should a Part 107 crew handle laser activity or illumination?
Cevap
Avoid known or NOTAMed laser activity. If the remote pilot or control station is illuminated, look away, protect vision, and land or terminate if vision or control is affected. If you witness a laser illuminate any aircraft, record useful details and report the incident through the applicable FAA channel.
Kart 236
Soru
How should a pilot scan for traffic and obstacles?
Cevap
Use short, overlapping visual sectors with brief pauses instead of one continuous sweep, and move the scan between near and far areas.
Kart 237
Soru
How should a remote pilot look for a dim object at night?
Cevap
Look about 5° to 10° to one side instead of staring straight at it. Off-center viewing puts the image on rod-rich retina outside the central night blind spot.
Kart 238
Soru
What is prohibited regarding Part 107 certificates, records, and reports?
Cevap
Fraudulent or intentionally false statements, reproduction for a fraudulent purpose, and alteration.
Kart 239
Soru
What kinds of Part 107 rules may an FAA waiver address?
Cevap
Only the rules listed in §107.205: moving operations; night or civil-twilight anti-collision lighting; VLOS, visual-observer, and one-aircraft limits; yielding and flight over people or moving vehicles; controlled-airspace authorization; and §107.51 operating limits. Moving-operation and VLOS waivers can't authorize compensated carriage of another person's property.
Kart 240

Kart 244
Soru
What is autokinesis?
Cevap
A stationary light can appear to move when stared at against a dark background. Shift the gaze and use other references instead of fixating.
Kart 245
Soru
Does Part 107 set one universal stand-off distance from people?
Cevap
No. The remote PIC selects and adjusts a safe distance from the aircraft's path, speed, maneuverability, environment, people, likely failures, and emergency landing options.
Kart 246
Soru
Why is a battery reserve part of performance planning?
Cevap
Wind, temperature, maneuvering, holding, and an alternate landing area can consume more energy than the nominal mission estimate.
Kart 247
Soru
What makes a microburst dangerous near the surface?
Cevap
It is an intense, localized downdraft that spreads outward at the surface, producing rapid vertical and horizontal wind shear with little low-altitude recovery margin.
Kart 248
Soru
What makes a drone eligible for Category 1 operations over people?
Cevap
It must weigh 0.55 pound or less throughout the operation, including attachments, and have no exposed rotating parts that would lacerate human skin.
Kart 249
Soru
How do buildings and terrain affect low-level wind?
Cevap
They can create gusts, rotors, downdrafts, and turbulence downwind. The stronger the wind and larger the obstacle, the greater the hazard.
Kart 250
Soru
Why should a small UAS stay clear of smoke-stack and cooling-tower plumes?
Cevap
Visible or invisible hot exhaust can create turbulence, vertical shear, reduced visibility, contamination, and icing. Stay clear—preferably upwind—because the plume's extent is hard to predict.
Kart 251
Soru
What is a false-horizon illusion?
Cevap
Sloping clouds, terrain, or lights can be mistaken for the true horizon, leading to an incorrect attitude judgment.
Kart 252
Soru
What should an operations-over-people contingency plan decide?
Cevap
When to stop, divert, or land away from people after lost link, component failure, an eligibility-changing configuration issue, or unexpected crowd movement—and who will call and execute that action.
Kart 253
Soru
From where is Part 107 flight visibility measured?
Cevap
From the location of the control station, not from a nearby airport weather sensor.
Kart 254
Soru
What injury threshold defines Category 2 eligibility?

Cevap
They should describe the system and its limitations; eligible categories and required components; allowed modifications; and how to verify or change the applicable configuration or operating mode.
Kart 264
Soru
Why can an unlighted structure be more hazardous at night?
Cevap
Its silhouette and support wires may disappear against the background. Chart review, site inspection, lighting checks, and conservative separation become more important.
Kart 265
Soru
Why is hail a no-go hazard for a small UAS?
Cevap
It can damage propellers, rotors, sensors, antennas, batteries, and the airframe, while nearby convective turbulence and downdrafts can overwhelm control. Avoid any storm producing or forecast to produce hail.
Kart 266
Soru

Cevap
Use either a Standard Remote ID aircraft that meets §89.110 or a broadcast-module operation that meets §89.115(a). A nonbroadcast FRIA operation under §89.115(b) does not qualify, and Category 3 operations over an open-air assembly are prohibited.
Kart 271
Soru
How do an operations-over-people MOC and DOC differ?
Cevap
An MOC is the FAA-accepted test, analysis, or inspection method. A DOC identifies that MOC and attests that the declared aircraft or configuration meets the applicable Category 2 or 3 and safety-defect requirements.
Kart 272
Soru
Why must frost or structural icing be removed before flight?
Cevap
It disrupts airflow, reduces lift, adds weight, increases drag, and can degrade propeller or control-surface performance.
Kart 273
Soru
What hazards peak in a mature thunderstorm?
Cevap
Strong updrafts and downdrafts, severe turbulence, gust fronts, microbursts, hail, lightning, heavy rain, and possible tornadoes. Avoid the storm rather than trying to judge a safe path through it.

What maintenance records are required for Category 4?
Cevap
Record the work, date, and person for one year or until the work is repeated or superseded. Retain life-limited-part, inspection, and airworthiness-directive status and transfer those status records with the aircraft.

What should the remote PIC evaluate when selecting an area for operations over people?
Cevap
Evaluate people, moving vehicles and vessels; terrain and structures; the planned path, aircraft performance, and maneuverability; weather; likely failures, escape routes, and emergency landing options; and the pilot's familiarity with the site. Reassess as conditions change.

How can a modification affect operations-over-people eligibility?
Cevap
A change to weight, structure, rotating parts, software, or required components can invalidate the demonstrated category unless the current approval and instructions cover that configuration.

Are maintenance records useful when Part 107 doesn't require Category 4 records?
Cevap
Yes. FAA guidance recommends logging inspections, repairs, alterations, software changes, component time, and return-to-service checks. Category 4 has a separate mandatory record system.

What must be satisfied for a Part 107 operation over people at night?
Cevap
Both the applicable Subpart D category rules and §107.29 night rules must be met. The remote PIC needs the applicable night knowledge or training, and the aircraft must stay in an eligible configuration with any operating instructions followed and an anti-collision light visible for at least 3 statute miles with a sufficient flash rate.

How long must Category 2 or 3 MOC and DOC support records be kept?
Cevap
A DOC producer keeps supporting data for two years after production ends; a designer or modifier keeps it for two years after submitting the DOC. An MOC submitter keeps its description and justification while the MOC remains FAA-accepted.

What must the remote PIC check on a Category 2 or 3 aircraft?
Cevap
The required category label, FAA-accepted Declaration of Compliance listing, current operating instructions, required components, and condition for safe operation.

Soru
When may a Category 1, 2, or 3 drone operate over moving vehicles?
Cevap
At a closed- or restricted-access site where everyone inside a moving vehicle is on notice, or when the aircraft does not maintain sustained flight over moving vehicles. A brief, one-time transit can be incidental; hovering, circling, or repeated back-and-forth passes are sustained flight.

May a drone qualify for more than one operations-over-people category?
Cevap
Yes, but it must not be able to switch inadvertently into a configuration that fails the category being used.

Soru
Who becomes the applicant for a self-built or materially modified Category 2 or 3 drone?
Cevap
The person who produces, designs, builds from separate components, or makes an eligibility-changing modification. Before Category 2 or 3 operations, that applicant must show compliance through an FAA-accepted MOC and submit a new DOC.
