Preflight action, as required for all flights away from the vicinity of an airport, shall include

A

the designation of an alternate airport.

B

a study of arrival procedures at airports/ heliports of intended use.

C

an alternate course of action if the flight cannot be completed as planned.✓ Correct Answer

Explanation

14 CFR 91.103(a) requires, for flights not in the vicinity of an airport, familiarity with weather, fuel requirements, and the alternatives available if the planned flight cannot be completed. A VFR flight does not require designating an alternate airport, and studying arrival procedures is not a specified requirement.
