Crew Resource Management and Aeronautical Decision-Making Quiz

What is aeronautical decision making?

• A mental process used by pilots to determine the best course of action in a circumstance

• The process of air traffic control

• The physical act of flying an aircraft

• The process of designing aircraft

How does a pilot effectively make decisions?

• By ignoring all external factors

• By relying solely on technology

• By using aeronautical decision-making skills

• By following the rules strictly

What is CRM and how effective is it?

• A process to manage customer relationships in aviation

• Crew Resource Management, effective in decreasing human error

• A decision-making technique for pilots

• A type of aircraft model

What are the five hazardous attitudes?

• Disobedience, Hesitation, Overestimation, Fear, Surrender

• Recklessness, Indecisiveness, Vulnerability, Cowardice, Acceptance

• Carelessness, Timidity, Overconfidence, Ignorance, Arrogance

• Anti-authority, Impulsivity, Invulnerability, Machoism, Resignation

What are the steps for good decision-making?

• Identifying personal attitudes hazardous to safe flight, Learning how to recognize and cope with stress, Using all resources, Evaluating the effectiveness of ADM skills

• Fostering an environment where communication is encouraged and expected, Establishing effective communication procedures prior to flight, Informing the crew as conditions change, Ensuring all crew members in the operation are not impaired by drugs or alcohol

• Not worrying about regulations, Doing something without thinking first, Wanting immediate action rather than thinking it through, Showing aggressive pride in an individual's masculinity

• Following the rules strictly, Ignoring all external factors, Relying solely on technology, Disregarding all resources

To fly safely, a pilot must be able to assess and mitigate risk. What does risk management rely on?

• Fostering an environment where communication is encouraged and expected, Establishing effective communication procedures prior to flight, Informing the crew as conditions change, Ensuring all crew members in the operation are not impaired by drugs or alcohol

• Situational awareness, Problem recognition, Good judgement

• Following the rules strictly, Ignoring all external factors, Relying solely on technology

• Not worrying about regulations, Doing something without thinking first, Wanting immediate action rather than thinking it through

What is Crew Resource Management (CRM)?

• A decision-making technique for pilots

• The effective use of all available resources to ensure a successful operation

• A process to manage customer relationships in aviation

• A type of aircraft model

What are the responsibilities of the Remote PIC?

• Fostering an environment where communication is encouraged and expected, Establishing effective communication procedures prior to flight, Informing the crew as conditions change, Ensuring all crew members in the operation are not impaired by drugs or alcohol

• Scanning the airspace in the operational area for any collision hazards, Maintaining awareness of the sUAS through direct visual observation, Informing the crew as conditions change

• Delegating operational tasks and managing crewmembers, Recognizing and addressing hazardous attitudes, Establishing effective team communication

• Maintaining awareness of the sUAS through direct visual observation, Establishing effective communication procedures prior to flight, Informing the crew as conditions change, Ensuring all crew members in the operation are not impaired by drugs or alcohol

What are the FAA requirements for the Remote PIC and other crewmembers?
