When using a small UA in a commercial operation, who is responsible for briefing the participants about emergency procedures?

A

The FAA inspector-in-charge.

B

The lead visual observer.

C

The remote PIC.✓ Correct Answer

Explanation

14 CFR 107.49(b) requires the remote pilot in command, before flight, to ensure that all persons directly participating in the operation are informed about operating conditions, emergency procedures, contingency procedures, roles and responsibilities, and hazards. That duty belongs to the remote PIC, not to a visual observer, and no FAA inspector is part of a routine Part 107 operation.
