What’s on the UAG test

Questions come from the knowledge and risk management elements of the Remote Pilot – Small Unmanned Aircraft Systems ACS. Our mock exams spread the 60 questions across its areas in proportion to how many topics each has; the FAA does not publish its exact weighting.

Sample UAG practice questions

Written by AI from FAA source material for specific ACS elements, in the FAA’s three-choice format. Reported questions are removed.

1. 1. A remote pilot wants to fly a small unmanned aircraft over people as a Category 1 operation. The aircraft weighs 0.50 pound by itself, and the pilot attaches an accessory camera that weighs 0.10 pound. The aircraft has no exposed rotating parts that would lacerate human skin. Does the aircraft meet the Category 1 weight limit?

   UA.I.A.K1
   1. A. Yes, because only the weight of the aircraft itself counts, and 0.50 pound is under the limit.
   2. B. Yes, because the absence of exposed rotating parts that would lacerate skin removes the weight limit.
   3. C. No, because the weight limit includes everything on board or attached at takeoff and throughout the operation, and 0.60 pound exceeds 0.55 pound.
   Show answer

   C. The third choice is correct. Category 1 is limited to a maximum weight of 0.55 pound, including everything on board or otherwise attached to the aircraft at the time of takeoff and throughout each operation. The total here is 0.60 pound, which is over the limit [2]. The first choice is wrong because accessories count toward the weight [2]. The second choice is wrong because the rotating-parts condition is an additional requirement, not a replacement for the weight limit [2].

2. 2. A U.S.-registered small unmanned aircraft is owned and operated by a person who is neither a U.S. citizen nor a permanent resident. The person plans to use it for commercial air operations in the United States. Which statement is correct?

   UA.I.A.K1
   1. A. The aircraft is treated as a U.S. civil aircraft because it is U.S.-registered, so no additional authorization is required.
   2. B. The aircraft is considered foreign civil aircraft, so the operator needs a Foreign Aircraft Permit under 14 CFR part 375 before conducting commercial air operations.
   3. C. The aircraft is exempt from registration because the owner is not a U.S. citizen.
   Show answer

   B. The correct choice is the second. Foreign civil aircraft includes a U.S.-registered aircraft that is owned, controlled, or operated by persons who are not citizens or permanent residents of the United States. The operator of such an aircraft needs a Foreign Aircraft Permit under 14 CFR part 375 before conducting commercial air operations [3]. The first choice is wrong because U.S. registration alone does not keep the aircraft from being classed as foreign civil aircraft when the owner or operator is not a citizen or permanent resident [3]. The third choice is wrong because foreign-owned and operated small UAS must still be registered under part 47 or part 48 [3].

3. 3. A research organization plans to fly an unmanned aircraft without remote identification solely to gather data for aeronautical research. Under 14 CFR part 89, who may authorize this operation without remote identification?

   UA.I.F.K3
   1. A. The Administrator
   2. B. The manufacturer of the unmanned aircraft
   3. C. The local air traffic control facility
   Show answer

   A. Correct: 14 CFR § 89.120 says the Administrator may authorize operations without remote identification where the operation is solely for aeronautical research or to show compliance with regulations [1]. The manufacturer and the local ATC facility are not named as having this authority in the excerpt, so those choices are wrong [1].
