AVMG 2050 Midterm Review Marconi-some of his work and how it has contributed to drones now - correct answer ✔✔-Worked with radio waves -paved the way for modern radio and the transmission capabilities used to remotely control a range of systems, including unmanned aircraft 50's and 60's advanced unmanned aircraft one built by Lockheed, designed to be carried by the SR 71 (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔"It was around this time that more stealth techniques began to surface with advanced aircraft such as the Lockheed D-21, originally designed to be released from a piggyback position on a SR-71" 2 pilot optional planes in WW11 used for bombing - correct answer ✔✔-optionally piloted aircraft (OPA) designed to be flown by human pilots until set on target at which time crews abandoned the aircraft but had very limited success -used modified B-17s called BQ-7s to deliver high quantities of explosives to targets -used modified B-24s called BQ-8s for the same purpose -Joseph Kennedy, brother of John F Kennedy died in a failed attempt -the navy did this with helicopters RQ1 prior to predator and the other one (before the predator 89) (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-General Atomics GNAT-750 is the precursor to the RQ-1 predator (89) -RQ-1 (95) designed to collect intelligence and later was armed for target engagement -armed version known as MQ-1 Transformation technology developed by the military for public use - correct answer ✔✔-as technology associated with military UAVs became more sophisticated it caught the attention of civilian innovators -tactical to transformational -precision ag, communications, utilities inspection, firefighting, search and rescue, and even for delivery services Unmanned aerial systems distinction between systems and vehicles (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-UAV is now referred to as an aerial element of the overarching system -UAS(unmanned aerial system) was adopted to describe the composite array of systems composing the total system -UAS(Unmanned aircraft system)- represents the vehicle FAA recognizes UAS and sUAS (platforms under 55lbs) FAA modernization and reform act 2012, what it did? (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-the FAA was mandated to integrate UAS into the NAS so they had to start creating standards, safeguards, and regulations Visual line of sight method of flying vs other ways of flying (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-Visual line of sight (VLOS) and beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) -VLOS operational method in which the UAS is kept within visual perception of a remote pilot/visual observer -BVLOS operational method in which the UAS is operated outside of the visual perception range of the remote pilot; in some cases this type of operation is supported through use of a chase plane or technology Two particular UAS operations (MC) - correct answer ✔✔part 91, recreational operations part 107, non-recreational operations Within the FAA reg's there are things that are directive for UAS only one answer is correct - correct answer ✔✔-Part 91 general operating and flight rules required for all types of operations (sUAS remote pilot) -14 CFR part 107 operation and certification of small unmanned aircraft systems (non-recreational operation of sUAS and certification of remote pilots) Agl vs msl (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-AGL the local vertical distance above the ground, regardless of the relationship to actual altitude as measured above MSL; typically important in determining relationship position to terrain and ground-based objects/buildings -MSL "true altitude" above sea level; common reference frame for altitude measurement and indication • 3 types of rotor configs for vertical takeoffs (dual, multi, single) (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔ • If operating under certificate of authorization what does it require - correct answer ✔✔-NOTAM within 24 hours -FAA will issue a document outlining specific requirements which in most cases must be filed on a monthly basis to the issuing agency • FAA manages Public use COA's online system (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔Agency (or proponent) will be asked to provide the FAA with a declaration letter assuring that the proponent is recognized as a political subdivision of the government AND that the proponent will not operate for commercial use • When operating under civil nationwide COA you have to maintain certain distances from airports with towers, instrustments without towers, and other things (MC) - correct answer ✔✔-5NM from a control tower -3NM from an airport with published instrument procedures -2NM from an airport without " " -2NM from a heliport, gliderport or seaplane base • Whether or not you have to register a drone from a certain pound to a certain pound (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-"The FAA requires registration for all recreational remote pilots intending to fly sUAS weighing between 0.55 pounds and 55 pounds. Over 55 must register separately and receive and N- number • UAS center of excellence composed of 22 universities, What was COE asked to do? - correct answer ✔✔-6 FAA test sites Alaska, A&M, Nevada, north Dakota, Griffiss, Virgina polytec -Provide UAS related education, operation, or research; gain understanding of capabilities and limitations, identify new tech, processes, or methods to improve safety and efficiency; and expand public outreach and industry collaboration -FAA established COE to conduct operational research in support of its outlined UAS Integration Roadmap • BVLOS - correct answer ✔✔Beyond visual line of sight. LAANC (MC) - correct answer ✔✔-Low altitude authorization notification capability -will be able to grant near-real-time authorizations for the vast majority of operations. Implementation of the LAANC system is vital to the safety of the National Airspace System because it would (1) encourage compliance with 14 CFR 107.41 by speeding up the time to process authorization requests (2) reduce distraction of controllers working in the Tower, and (3) increase public access and capacity of the system to grant authorization What does ATC stand for? (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔air traffic control What does COA stand for (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔certificate of authorization What does AGL mean? (MC) - correct answer ✔✔above ground level • First person view and what it does for UAS pilot (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔an egocentric perspective, replicating the view from within the aircraft, -many sUAS on the market use Bluetooth technology to pair with a smartphone to provide FPV during flight -provides enhanced situational awareness Visual line of sight(VLOS) in reference to remote pilot (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔operational method in which the UAS is kept within visual perception of a remote pilot/visual observer, -if BeyondVLOS or ExtendedVLOS is used the operation is supported via chase plane or technology Define MSL (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔mean sea level Statement on VTOL UAS (T or F) - correct answer ✔✔-Platform capable of achieving translational flight for launch/recovery -rapidly deployable, doesn't require runway, better low-speed maneuverability -less fuel efficient, reduced range, lower airspeed, lower operational altitude
