Part 107 test practice question: Operations

OperationsDifficulty 2/5

You hear on CTAF: 'Skyhawk 3-4-Bravo, left base, runway 1-8.' Which direction is the aircraft's final approach heading, and what must you do?

  1. AAbout 180°; the aircraft must yield to your sUAS
  2. BAbout 180°; yield to the manned aircraft
  3. CAbout 018°; continue your flight
  4. DAbout 360°; request the aircraft to hold
Show answer and rationale

Correct: B. Runway 18 is aligned near 180° magnetic. A left base means the aircraft will shortly turn final toward 180°. Under §107.37 the sUAS must yield right-of-way to all manned aircraft.

  • C — Runway numbers are heading ÷ 10; 18 ≈ 180°.
  • D — Runway 18 is not 360°, and you cannot direct manned traffic.
  • A — sUAS always yield to manned aircraft.
