What is emphasized about unmanned operators regarding exposure to elements?

• They are unaffected by weather conditions.

• Weather conditions pose no risk to them.

• They are exposed to elements, leading to additional risks.

In which climates might operators face a higher risk of heatstroke and dehydration?

• Southern climates

• Northern climates

• Coastal climates

• Mountainous climates

Why is flying unmanned aircraft beyond visual line of sight limited?

• Due to technological limitations

• Due to regulatory restrictions

• Due to cost concerns

• Due to operator preferences

What is a recommended technique for effective airspace scanning?

• Close eyes intermittently

• Stare straight ahead

• Look from right to left or left to right

• Focus solely on the aircraft

How should pilots scan the airspace effectively?

• Begin scanning at the closest distance to the aircraft

• Begin scanning at the greatest distance an object can be perceived

• Scan in a zigzag pattern

• Spend less than a second per stop

What is recommended if an unmanned pilot loses sight of their aircraft while it is hovering?

• Increase altitude immediately

• Decrease altitude immediately

• Make small movements left or right until visual contact is re-established

• Perform a controlled descent

What is suggested regarding crew management for effective airspace scanning?

• Each crew member scans randomly

• Assign specific sectors of airspace to each crew member

• Only the pilot is responsible for airspace scanning

• Scan the airspace continuously without breaks

Which term describes the ability to see other aircraft and hazards in the air?
