  CHAPTER 8. SMALL UNMANNED AIRCRAFT OVER PEOPLE › 8.10 Accountability for Holders of DOCs › 8.10.1 Safety Defects

  Safety Defects. The FAA requires holders of an FAA-accepted DOC to comply with this rule by correcting safety defects that would cause a small unmanned aircraft to no longer meet the safety requirements for Categories 2 and 3 operations ... over people. Any defects identified after the DOC has been accepted must be resolved. If the unresolved safety defect results in the FAA rescinding the DOC, the person correcting the safety issue must submit a new DOC prior to being…

  document receipt and may inform the public. The FAA may provide applicant-included information regarding the nature of the safety issue and any other information the applicant provides relating to the safety issue. As part of the notification, the person ... holding the FAA-accepted DOC should include information regarding the nature of the safety issue and how the safety issue may be corrected. If the person has not determined a corrective action to address the safety issue, the person should…

  Chapter 9: Physiological Factors (Including Drugs and Alcohol) Affecting Pilot Performance › Dehydration

  Dehydration Dehydration is the term given to a critical loss of water from the body. Causes of dehydration are hot temperatures, wind, humidity, and diuretic drinks—coffee, tea, alcohol, and caffeinated soft drinks. Some common signs of dehydration are headache ... fatigue, cramps, sleepiness, and dizziness. The first noticeable effect of dehydration is fatigue, which in turn makes top physical and mental performance difficult, if not impossible. Flying a small UA for long periods in hot summer temperatures or at high…

  Chapter 5: Aerodynamics of Flight › Ground Effect

  aircraft leaving ground effect after takeoff encounters just the reverse of an aircraft entering ground effect during landing. The aircraft leaving ground effect will: • Require an increase in AOA to maintain the same CL • Experience an increase in induced drag ... nose-up change in moment • Experience a reduction in static source pressure and increase in indicated airspeed Ground effect must be considered during takeoffs and landings. For example, if a pilot fails to understand the relationship between the aircraft…
