A.4.8 Sample Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Example. I am the remote PIC of a small unmanned aircraft in the proximity of an accident scene shooting aerial footage. Much like pilots in manned aircraft must adhere to preflight action ... consider this situation prior to flight, I can use the Basic Hazard Identification and Mitigation Process. Through this process, I might determine that an acceptable level of risk can be achieved by also having an alternate landing site and possibly…
