QUESTION 08Weather
Weather decisions and margins
A mission moves from a cool low-elevation field to a hot high-elevation site. What performance concern increases?
Reduced air density can reduce available performance
Payload capability must increase automatically
Air density always increases with both changes
Temperature cannot affect a small UAS
Answer: Reduced air density can reduce available performance
The relevant case condition is: A mission moves from a cool low-elevation field to a hot high-elevation site.
Higher temperature and altitude generally reduce air density, which can reduce aircraft performance; numerical capability must come from the aircraft's applicable data.
Therefore choose “Reduced air density can reduce available performance”. The alternatives must be tested against that same stated condition; an unrelated document, unit or approval cannot supply a missing requirement.
Compare the other answer choices
Air density always increases with both changes
The proposed choice “Air density always increases with both changes” does not follow from the given conditions. Higher temperature and altitude generally reduce air density, which can reduce aircraft performance; numerical capability must come from the aircraft's applicable data.

QUESTION 09Operations
Visual contact and crew coordination
A drone is hidden behind a building but its camera feed remains clear. What issue remains without applicable approval?
Use the clear onboard view as a complete substitute for the lost visual contact
Treat a normal airspace authorization as automatic relief from visual-contact requirements
Use a long-range command link as proof that visual-contact requirements are met
The required visual line of sight is lost
Answer: The required visual line of sight is lost
The relevant case condition is: A drone is hidden behind a building but its camera feed remains clear.
The required visual line of sight is not replaced by a camera feed or binocular-only observation; crew arrangements must satisfy the actual VLOS requirements.
Therefore choose “The required visual line of sight is lost”. The alternatives must be tested against that same stated condition; an unrelated document, unit or approval cannot supply a missing requirement.
Compare the other answer choices
Use the clear onboard view as a complete substitute for the lost visual contact
The camera feed does not by itself restore the required VLOS.
Treat a normal airspace authorization as automatic relief from visual-contact requirements
Airspace authorization does not automatically waive VLOS.
Use a long-range command link as proof that visual-contact requirements are met
Command range and required visual observation are different conditions.
