I took the test and passed yesterday. It is hard and you need to know everything because you do not know what question they are going to ask you about weather. Will it be what is advection fog or steam fog? Is it poor visibility in stable or unstable air mass.
At least 50 percent dealt with ready a sectional chart:
What is the craf frequency at abc airport- and that is an easy one. Tough ones are the high intensity light towers 6nm from abc air port need to be inspected can you do it. If you can't look at a sectional chart and identify an object it's hight and what air space it is in you are sunk. Now that I scared you 30 percent I knew fro taking online quizzes. I did not take any online course or in person class. This is how I passed. I joined drone u and read through their training manual and I took their 5 quizzes over and over and over until I passed them all with 90 percent. If you get a question wrong then read the explanation and understand why. I also paid 8.99 to take unlimited 120 question quiz from
www.usdronetraining.com - mainly operations and weather but straight from faa website. I then signed up for free to john Rupert to get the 40 questions from the FAA questions and answers.
Here are some questions that I got:
Part 107 covers civil or public faa
If cg shifts aft how does this affect flight
Refer to the figure 23 Dallas airport is not operational what frequency do you tune into
Known that weight does not affect stalling
Stable airmass is stratiform clouds poor visibility
Unstable is cumulus and has good visibility
Steam fog is related to icing
Know adm Aeronautical decision making
What is the floor of class c airspace
You need to now floor and ceiling of airspace
If you violate rules it's ok in an emergency and you only need to report it if asked.
Don't worry about reading 2000 pages you can understand the information by taking the quizzes on drone u and elsewhere.
It is a given that you know weather, operations, adm and when you need to report crashes or what to do if you cause moe than 500 damage not including the price of your drone- you report it.
All that said go on YouTube or elsewhere and learn how to read a sectional chart and metar weather reports. A lot of the quizzes I saw mention ovc007 which is overcast to 7000 feet. 18004kt G20 which is wind from 180 degrees at 4 knots gusting to knots. But you reall need to know all the entries on this section. None of the quizzes I took mentioned the first entry is in Zulu time. Or that an entry that has 20/22 means between 2000 2200 in time. I spent about 40 hours and passed barely. Use YouTube for metal weather and how to read a sectional you will not pass without it.
