Home › Part 107 Practice Tests › Regulations & Registration Questions › Question 46
In an in-flight emergency requiring immediate action, the remote pilot in command may
- A.never deviate from any rule, even to avoid a collision.
- B.deviate from the rules only after receiving prior FAA approval by phone.
- C.deviate from Part 107 rules to the extent necessary to meet the emergency.
Correct answer
C. deviate from Part 107 rules to the extent necessary to meet the emergency.
Why
Section 107.21 allows the remote pilot to deviate from the rules in an emergency requiring immediate action. Waiting for prior approval would defeat the purpose of the emergency authority.
