Technical and operational mitigations for ground risk - EASA Drone License A2

Question 1

Rain can increase the ground risk in particular because it:

Accepted Answer

can degrade visibility, the sensors or the performance of the UAS

Answer

always reduces the kinetic energy on impact

Answer

makes uninvolved persons legally invisible

Answer

permits flight over an assembly of people

Question 2

The presence of remote identification or a geo-awareness function:

Accepted Answer

can contribute to safety but does not replace the operational risk assessment

Answer

overrides the legal restrictions

Answer

automatically authorises any flight close to uninvolved persons

Answer

removes all responsibility from the remote pilot

Question 3

Flying close to a building facade requires particular attention because:

Accepted Answer

turbulence and obstacles can cause an unexpected, uncommanded flight path

Answer

the building always protects every person on the ground

Answer

the GNSS reception always becomes flawless

Answer

the 30 m horizontal distance no longer applies

Question 4

If the density of people increases during the mission, what is the correct decision?

Accepted Answer

Reassess the ground risk and, if necessary, adapt or terminate the flight

Answer

Continue the mission, since the original assessment always remains valid

Answer

Reduce the safety distance only, to save time

Answer

Fly faster to finish before the crowd arrives

Question 5

A well-chosen take-off site should allow the remote pilot to:

Accepted Answer

have enough clear space to take off, land and abort the flight

Answer

take off in the middle of a flow of pedestrians

Answer

quickly lose visual line of sight with the UAS

Answer

follow a mandatory flight path over people

Question 6

What is the main purpose of establishing a ground risk buffer around the operational area?

Accepted Answer

To absorb deviations from the intended flight path without immediately endangering uninvolved persons

Answer

To replace the A2 'open' subcategory remote pilot certificate

Answer

To increase the permitted MTOM of the UAS

Answer

To remove the need for a spare battery

Question 7

In the event of a loss of control near uninvolved persons, the priority must be to:

Accepted Answer

apply the planned emergency procedure and reduce the exposure of uninvolved persons

Answer

continue the mission in order to finish it quickly

Answer

gain altitude above the people

Answer

simply switch off the video recording

Question 8

Propeller guards can reduce certain risks, but they must not be regarded as:

Accepted Answer

an authorisation to make deliberate contact with people

Answer

a mechanical aid that may be available depending on the UAS

Answer

an item to be checked before flight whenever they are fitted

Answer

a means of limiting certain minor injuries

Question 9

When must the ground risk assessment be carried out?

Accepted Answer

Before the flight, and updated during the flight if conditions change

Answer

Only after landing

Answer

Only when the UAS exceeds 25 kg

Answer

Only in the 'specific' category

Question 10

Reflection of the GNSS signal in an urban environment can:

Accepted Answer

degrade position hold and increase the risk of drift

Answer

always improve the accuracy

Answer

replace reading the map

Answer

remove the maximum height limit
