As an instructor, you have a role in assisting remote pilot applicants when they are applying by what method?

• A. By paper and are a current certificated manned-aircraft pilot
• B. Electronically through IACRA only
• C. Not involved in the process
• D. By phone interview only

Answer: (A)

The method tested here is electronic submission through IACRA. For remote pilot certification, the FAA requires applicants to apply online via the Integrated Airman Certification and Rating Application system. As an instructor, your role is to guide the applicant through completing the IACRA form, help verify the accuracy of the information, and provide any necessary endorsements or sign-offs within the electronic record. Paper submissions, or applying by phone, aren’t used in this process. IACRA streamlines the workflow, assigns a tracking number, and ensures the application moves through the FAA’s electronic review pathway.
