What must a person, who is manipulating the controls of a small unmanned aircraft, do if the standard remote identification fails during a flight?
A
Land the aircraft as soon as practicable.✓ Correct Answer
B
Notify the nearest FAA Air Traffic facility.
C
Activate the aircraft's navigation lights.
Explanation
14 CFR 89.110(a)(2) states that the person manipulating the flight controls must land the standard remote identification unmanned aircraft as soon as practicable if it is no longer broadcasting the required remote ID message elements. Part 89 does not require notifying an ATC facility, and turning on lights does not replace the remote ID broadcast.
