A
immediately followed by 11 hours of rest.
B
unforeseen operational circumstances arise after takeoff.✓ Correct Answer
C
known ATC delays do not exceed 30 minutes.
Explanation
Under 14 CFR 117.11(b), a flightcrew member may exceed the maximum flight time limits if unforeseen operational circumstances arise after takeoff that are beyond the certificate holder's control (with reporting requirements). Known delays before takeoff do not qualify, and a following rest period does not authorize exceeding the limits.
