As Pilot in Command of an aircraft, under which situation can you deviate from an ATC clearance?
A
When operating in Class A airspace at night.
B
If an ATC clearance is not understood and in VFR conditions.
C
In response to a traffic alert and collision avoidance system resolution advisory.✓ Correct Answer
Explanation
14 CFR 91.123(a) says a pilot may not deviate from an ATC clearance unless an amended clearance is obtained, an emergency exists, or the deviation is in response to a traffic alert and collision avoidance system resolution advisory. A clearance that is not understood must be clarified, not deviated from, and night Class A operation is irrelevant.
