### Questions

**Question 1 / 5**  
**Topic:** Airspace Classification  
Suppose you, a remote pilot, are tasked with getting some aerial footage around an airport that is of Class D airspace. According to 14 CFR part 107, how can you legally fly in this airspace?

- [**Obtain prior authorization from the air traffic control (ATC)**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Tune into the airport’s radio frequency and request permission to enter airspace**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Nothing. You are not allowed to fly in airport’s Class D airspace no matter what.**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Don't know - Mark as incorrect**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)

The correct answer is: 
According to 14 CFR §107.41, a remote pilot must obtain prior authorization from ATC to operate in controlled airspace, including Class D airspace. However, remote pilots are not to talk on the airport’s radio frequencies unless it’s an emergency that could affect manned aircrafts. You must get prior permission from ATC via phone or via the FAA website.

**Question 2 / 5**  
**Topic:** Airspace Classification  
(Refer to FAA-CT-8080-2H, Figure 24, area 5). What airspace is Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport in?

- [**Class A**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Class B**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Class C**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Don't know - Mark as incorrect**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)

The correct answer is:  
We notice on FAA-CT-8080-2H, Figure 24 that solid blue lines surround the runway sketch figures for the airport. According to Refer to Legend 1 of FAA-CT-8080-2H, a solid blue line refers to a Class B airspace.

**Question 3 / 5**  
**Topic:** Airspace Classification  
(Refer to FAA-CT-8080-2H.pdf, Figure 21, area 1) What is the top elevation of the Minot International Airport’s Class D airspace?

- [**4,200 feet AGL**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**5,916 feet MSL**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**2,484 feet AGL**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Don't know - Mark as incorrect**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)

The correct answer is:  
The Class D airspace goes from surface to 4,200 feet MSL (mean sea level). Therefore, this Class D airspace goes from surface to 4,200 feet MSL. We must subtract the elevation from the ground to the sea, for which Minot International Airport’s elevation is 1,716 feet MSL. Thus, 4,200 feet MSL corresponds to 2,484 feet AGL.

**Question 4 / 5**  
**Topic:** Airspace Classification  
What line color and type denotes Class B airspace?

- [**Solid magenta line**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Dashed blue line**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Solid blue line**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Don't know - Mark as incorrect**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)

The correct answer is:  
Airspace B is denoted by a solid blue line.

I. Class G  
II. Class E starting at 1,200 feet AGL  
III. Class E starting at 700 feet AGL

- [**III, V**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)  
- [**Don't know - Mark as incorrect**](/content/exam/airspace-quiz-1#/index.html)

The correct answer is:  
Cooperstown is enclosed by a military operation area (MOA), which means it's also present along with Class E airspace starting at 700 feet AGL.
