  • B — correct Appendix 1 of the study guide lists AC 150/5200-32 with the title Reporting Wildlife Aircraft Strikes.

BACKGROUND

Appendix 1 of the Remote Pilot Study Guide lists the study references for the knowledge test. Among them is Advisory Circular (AC) 150/5200-32, titled Reporting Wildlife Aircraft Strikes, which is also listed as a reference for the Airport Operations task in the Airman Certification Standards. Other references in the list include AC 107-2 on small unmanned aircraft systems, AC 00-6 on aviation weather, 14 CFR part 48 on registration and marking of small unmanned aircraft, and the Aeronautical Information Manual. Knowing that a dedicated advisory circular exists for wildlife strike reporting points a remote pilot to the FAA process for reporting a collision between an aircraft and wildlife.
