When a pilot believes advanced avionics enable operations closer to personal or environmental limits,

A

greater utilization of the aircraft is achieved.

B

risk is increased.✓ Correct Answer

C

risk is decreased.

Explanation

The FAA's Advanced Avionics Handbook warns that when pilots use the capabilities of advanced avionics to push closer to personal or environmental limits, risk increases, erasing the safety margin the equipment was meant to provide. Greater utilization is not a safety benefit, and risk does not decrease.
