When must each occupant of an aircraft wear an approved parachute?
A
When flying over water beyond gliding distance to the shore.
B
When practicing spins or other flight maneuvers for any certificate or rating.
C
When an intentional maneuver that exceeds 30° noseup or nosedown relative to the horizon is made.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
14 CFR 91.307(c) requires each occupant to wear an approved parachute during an intentional maneuver exceeding 60 degrees of bank or 30 degrees nose-up or nose-down relative to the horizon, unless an exception applies (for example spins and other maneuvers required for a certificate or rating when given by a CFI). Over-water flight does not require parachutes.
