FAA sample question 46 of 46 · Airspace

Your surveying company is a title sponsor for a race team at the Indianapolis 500. To promote your new aerial surveying department, you decide to video part of the race using a small UA. The FAA has issued a Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) for the race in the area you plan to fly. In this situation

A. you may fly your drone in the TFR since your company is sponsoring a team at the race.
B. the TFR applies to all aircraft; you may not fly in the area without a Certificate of Waiver or Authorization.
C. flying your drone is allowed if you notify all non-participating people of the closed course UA operation.

Answer: B. the TFR applies to all aircraft; you may not fly in the area without a Certificate of Waiver or Authorization.

A TFR applies to drones as much as to manned aircraft. Sponsorship and notifying spectators change nothing; only specific FAA authorization lets you fly inside it.

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.
