  1. AUne communication privilégiée
  2. BUn message faux ou frauduleux
  3. CUn message encodé
  4. DUn essai de transmission durant un exercice d'urgence

Correct answer: B — Un message faux ou frauduleux. Question tirée de la banque officielle d'ISDE.

Why

Saying "MAYDAY" when no danger exists is a lie that wastes emergency resources and breaks the law, which the regulations define as a false or fraudulent message. The full explanation — and one for every question — is in Pro.
