A manned helicopter appears at low altitude heading toward the operating area. What should the remote PIC do?
- A.Hold position so the helicopter pilot can see and avoid the drone
- B.Yield the right of way, maneuver away, and land if necessary to stay well clear
- C.Climb quickly above the helicopter's path
Correct answer
B. Yield the right of way, maneuver away, and land if necessary to stay well clear
Why
Small unmanned aircraft must yield to manned traffic, which may not see the drone at all. Moving away early, and landing when in doubt, is the safest way to stay well clear.
