109 Multiple choice questions
Term 1 of 109
Nimbus clouds
8 hours
must be 500 ft below clouds
high wispy clouds
big heavy clouds
Definition 2 of 109
defines the concept of relative humidity. The dew point is the temperature at which the air can
hold no more moisture. When temperature reduces to the dew point, the air is completely
saturated and moisture begins to condense out of the air in the form of fog, dew, frost, clouds,
rain, or snow
Standing lenticular altocumulus clouds
Inversion
Temperature / Dew Point Relationship
Cumulonimbus clouds
Term 3 of 109
Refer to FAA-CT-8080-2H, Figure 26, area 4.) You have been hired to inspect the tower under
construction at 46.9N and 98.6W, near Jamestown Regional (JMS). What must you receive prior to
flying your unmanned aircraft in this area?
Authorization from the military.
Authorization from ATC.
Authorization from the National Park Service.
,Term 4 of 109
(Refer to FAA-CT-8080-2H, Figure 78.) You have been hired to use your small UAS to inspect the
railroad tracks from Blencoe (SE of Sioux City) to Onawa. Will ATC authorization be required?
Yes, Onawa is in Class D airspace that is designated for an airport.
No, your entire flight is in Class G airspace.
Yes, you must contact the Onawa control tower to operate within 5 miles of the airport.
Term 5 of 109
Registration requirements for small unmanned aircraft systems. Under what condition would a
small UA not have to be registered before it is operated in the United States?
When the aircraft weighs less than .55 pounds on takeoff, including everything that is on-
board or attached to the aircraft.
When the aircraft has a takeoff weight that is more than .55 pounds, but less than 55
pounds, not including fuel and necessary attachments.
C. All small UAS need to be registered regardless of the weight of the aircraft before,
during, or after the flight.
Term 6 of 109

high relative humidity. What weather conditions would you expect?
Smooth air, poor visibility, fog, haze, or low clouds.
Light wind shear, poor visibility, haze, and light rain.
Turbulent air, poor visibility, fog, low stratus type clouds, and showery precipitation.
Term 13 of 109
A stall occurs when the smooth airflow over the unmanned airplane's wing is disrupted, and the
lift degenerates rapidly. This is caused when the wing
exceeds the maximum speed.
exceeds maximum allowable operating weight.
exceeds its critical angle of attack.
