Try a Free Practice Question

1. A remote pilot plans to fly a small UAS at 300 feet AGL in an area depicted on a sectional chart with a dashed magenta line. What class of airspace is the pilot most likely operating in?

Show explanation
A dashed magenta line on a sectional chart indicates the boundary of Class E airspace that begins at the surface. This is commonly found around non-towered airports with instrument approaches.

2. Under 14 CFR Part 107, a remote pilot wants to operate in Class C airspace. What is required before the flight can take place?

Show explanation
Operations in controlled airspace (Class B, C, D, and certain Class E) require prior authorization from the FAA. This can be obtained through the LAANC system or the FAA DroneZone portal.

3. While reviewing a sectional chart, a remote pilot notices a blue segmented circle around an airport with the notation "CT 125.3" in the airport data block. What does this indicate?

Show explanation
A blue segmented circle indicates Class D airspace around a towered airport. The notation "CT" followed by a frequency refers to the control tower communication frequency.

4. A remote pilot is planning a flight near a military operations area (MOA) depicted on a sectional chart. Which statement is correct regarding UAS operations in a MOA?

Show explanation
MOAs are special use airspace where military training activities occur. They are not restricted to civilian traffic, but remote pilots should use extreme caution and check NOTAMs for active periods, as high-speed military aircraft may be present.

5. On a sectional chart, a remote pilot observes a number "30" inside a bracket near an airspace boundary. What does this value represent?

Show explanation
Numbers shown in hundreds of feet on sectional charts near airspace boundaries indicate the floor or ceiling of that airspace in MSL. A "30" in this context means 3,000 feet MSL, typically indicating the floor of overlying airspace.
