- What are the FAA requirements for an aircraft to be IFR certified?
For IFR flight, the following instruments and equipment are required: (1) Instruments and equipment specified in paragraph (b) of this section, and, for night flight, instruments and equipment specified in paragraph (c) of this section (2) Two-way radio communication and navigation equipment suitable for the route to be flown
- Should turns always be standard-rate? - Aviation Stack Exchange
Outside of IFR flying, there isn't really any need to stick precisely to a standard rate turn if you're just blundering around on a nice day An exception to this might be flying without a directional gyro, and you want make precise turns from one heading to another, and holding the standard rate in the turn allows you to time when to roll out
- instrument flight rules - Is using a VOR considered IFR or VFR . . .
IFR (Instrument Flying Rules) is a set of rules, procedures, and regulations governing the flight of aircraft solely with reference to flight instruments instead of the ground You can fly IFR in IMC (Instrument Meteorological Conditions) or in VMC (Visual Meteorological Conditions) IMC would preclude referencing the horizon
- faa regulations - What are the rules for an IFR departure from a . . .
The FARs do explicitly account for the possibility of IFR in G, eg 91 179 (b) "each person operating an aircraft under IFR in level cruising flight in uncontrolled airspace shall maintain an appropriate altitude as follows " Other IFR "rules" are written as airspace-agnostic include 91 167, 91 171, 91 177, 91 179, etc
- What is the vertical separation minima between IFR and VFR?
ATC will try to provide separation for known VFR, but if the airspace is shared with uncontrolled VFR aircraft, it would be impossible to separate VFR and IFR aircraft
- Are there any LSA aircraft that can be flown IFR in IMC?
Are there any LSA aircraft that are IFR certified? A LSA would be the perfect private commuter plane for an instrument rated private pilot If not, what are the most cost effective airplanes that
- What is the difference between VFR and IFR in class G airspace?
The IFR pilot would be able to continue as planned The VFR pilot would comply with VFR fuel reserve planning (14 CFR 91 151) The IFR pilot, having departed in VFR conditions, would similarly be bound by 91 151 but would be prudent to plan fuel in accordance with 91 167 instead—in case they encounter unforecast IFR conditions along their route
- What are the weather minimums in order to take off under IFR conditions?
Unless otherwise authorized by the FAA, no pilot may takeoff from a civil airport under IFR unless the weather conditions at time of takeoff are at or above the weather minimums for IFR takeoff prescribed for that airport under part 97 of this chapter
