(c) where no SAR time was specified in the flight itinerary, 24 hours after the last reported ETA. which answer(s) are correct?

Answer 1

A pilot must file an arrival report by the SAR time listed in the flight itinerary, one hour after the last reported ETA if no SAR time is provided in the flight plan, or within 24 hours after the last reported ETA if no SAR time or flight plan is provided.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pilot who terminates a flight itinerary is responsible for ensuring an arrival report is filed with the appropriate authority. The correct timing for this report is as follows:

1. If an SAR (Search and Rescue) time is specified in the flight itinerary, the report must be filed by that time.
2. If no SAR time is specified, but a flight plan is in place, the report is due one hour after the last reported Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA).
3. If no SAR time is specified and there is no flight plan, the report is due 24 hours after the last reported ETA.

The answers that are correct are (a) the SAR time specified in the flight itinerary, or (b) one hour after the last reported ETA when no SAR time is specified in the flight plan, and (c) 24 hours after the last reported ETA if no SAR time is specified in the flight itinerary.
