Question 28
Domain 1: FAA Part 107 OperationsWhich of the following best describes "hazardous attitudes" that can affect a remote pilot's judgment?
Correct answer: B
Explanation
Hazardous attitudes are the FAA-recognized mindset traps that can impair aeronautical decision-making: "anti-authority, impulsivity, invulnerability, macho, and resignation." These attitudes can lead a remote pilot to ignore rules, act without thinking, underestimate risk, seek unnecessary risk, or give up responsibility for safety.
Why each option is right or wrong
A. Only external weather factors
B. Anti-authority, impulsivity, invulnerability, macho, and resignation
FAA aeronautical decision-making guidance identifies five hazardous attitudes in Advisory Circular 60-22 and the FAA Risk Management Handbook (FAA-H-8083-2): anti-authority, impulsivity, invulnerability, macho, and resignation. These are the specific mindset errors the FAA says can degrade judgment in flight operations, including remote pilot decision-making, so the option listing all five matches the recognized standard exactly.
C. Only equipment malfunctions
D. Only fatigue factors
