Part 107 Chapter 6 Flashcards

CRM is the effective use of all available resources, including personnel, equipment, and information, to ensure safe and efficient operations.

The Remote Pilot in Command (Remote PIC) is responsible for all decisions and the overall safety of the operation.

Clear and effective communication ensures that all crew members understand their roles, responsibilities, and any potential hazards during the operation.

The Remote PIC should conduct preflight briefings, assign roles clearly, and establish procedures for continuous communication during the flight.

It should include the flight plan, emergency procedures, crew roles and responsibilities, and any expected challenges or hazards.

The VO assists the Remote PIC by maintaining visual line-of-sight with the sUAS and informing the PIC of any hazards or issues.

CRM improves safety by ensuring that all crew members work together to identify and mitigate risks, and make informed decisions during the flight.

Stress or fatigue can impair decision-making and communication, which may lead to errors and reduce overall crew performance.

Situational awareness involves understanding all aspects of the operational environment, including aircraft status, weather, airspace, and potential hazards.

The Remote PIC should monitor the drone’s performance, environmental conditions, and crew communication to stay informed and ready to react to changes.
