Question 80 - Flight performance and planning - EASA Drone License A2

The horizontal distance remains constant regardless of flight altitude

The horizontal buffer must increase proportionally with altitude, as a drone falling from a greater height has a wider potential impact radius

The buffer can decrease because hitting people is less likely from a high altitude

The rule only applies during automatic takeoff and landing phases
