Question 1

What type of weather is typically associated with the passage of a fast-moving cold front?

Accepted Answer

Sudden development of towering cumulus or cumulonimbus clouds, heavy rain showers, squalls, and potential thunderstorms, followed by a drop in temperature

Answer

Days of continuous, light drizzle

Answer

Clear, completely cloudless skies

Answer

Widespread radiation fog

Question 2

How can a legacy UAS without a class identification label and weighing 900 g operate today under EASA Open category rules?

Accepted Answer

It must operate in the A3 subcategory, far from people and at least 150 metres from residential, commercial, industrial or recreational areas

Answer

It can fly freely in the A1 subcategory over isolated people

Answer

It is permanently banned from flying in the Open category

Answer

It requires a Specific category authorisation for every flight

Question 3

In an aviation weather forecast (TAF), what does the abbreviation 'TEMPO' indicate?

Accepted Answer

Temporary fluctuations in the forecasted weather, lasting for less than one hour at a time

Answer

A permanent and complete change in the weather conditions

Answer

A gradual change occurring over several hours

Answer

The exact temperature at the airport

Question 4

In aviation human factors, what is 'Impulsivity'?

Accepted Answer

A hazardous attitude where the pilot acts quickly without thinking, reacting to the first idea that comes to mind instead of considering the safest option

Answer

A slow and methodical approach to problem-solving

Answer

The electrical pulses sent to the motors

Answer

A sudden burst of speed from the drone

Question 5

When setting the Return to Home (RTH) altitude before a flight, the pilot should ensure that it is:

Accepted Answer

Set higher than the tallest obstacle in the operational area to prevent collisions during the automated return

Answer

Set to the lowest possible altitude to save battery

Answer

Set higher than the 120 m legal limit just to be safe

Answer

Set to exactly 10 metres regardless of the environment

Question 6

Why is a Katabatic wind often much stronger than an Anabatic wind?

Accepted Answer

Because katabatic winds (cold, dense air draining downslope) are assisted by gravity, making them accelerate and often become quite strong

Answer

Because the sun is hotter in the afternoon

Answer

Because they only happen near the equator

Answer

Because they are driven by the Coriolis effect

Question 7

If you leave your drone outside on a cold morning and a thin layer of frost forms on the propellers, what must you do before flying?

Accepted Answer

Thoroughly clean and dry the propellers before flight; even a thin layer of frost disrupts the airfoil's smooth surface, drastically reducing lift and increasing drag

Answer

Fly immediately so the spinning action shakes the frost off

Answer

Turn the motors on full throttle while holding the drone down

Answer

Ignore it; frost is too thin to affect a drone

Question 8

What does a 'Geo-caging' (or Geo-fencing) feature do?

Accepted Answer

It creates a virtual software boundary based on GPS coordinates that the drone is programmed not to fly beyond

Answer

It builds a physical net around the drone

Answer

It cages the battery to prevent swelling

Answer

It limits the drone to indoor flights only

Question 9

If a METAR reports a temperature of 10 °C and a dew point of 10 °C (T/DP spread is zero), what should a remote pilot expect?

Accepted Answer

The air is 100% saturated, meaning fog, low clouds, or precipitation are highly likely or already present

Answer

Clear, dry air with excellent visibility

Answer

A severe thunderstorm

Answer

High-altitude clear air turbulence

Question 10

Which visible sign strongly suggests the presence of a microburst?

Accepted Answer

A localized ring of blowing dust spreading rapidly outward near the ground, often beneath a thunderstorm or virga

Answer

A perfectly clear, blue sky

Answer

High-altitude cirrus clouds

Answer

A steady, gentle sea breeze
