C. Upon request of the Federal Aviation Administration.
Answer: C. Upon request of the Federal Aviation Administration.
In an in-flight emergency the remote PIC may deviate from the rules as needed, and must send a written report only if the FAA asks for one. There is no automatic report to ATC or the NTSB.
The FAA published this sample set in August 2021. Our answers were checked against the current regulations and against the testing-supplement figures in September 2026.
