  1. 4 0 1 . 0 3 Rules of the Air

  2. Avoidance • The Pilot in Command (PIC) is the pilot responsible for operation and safety during flight time. • If there is any risk of collision it is the responsibility of the PIC of both aircraft to take such action as to avoid collision.

  3. Avoidance • When two aircraft are converging at approximately the same altitude, the PIC of the aircraft that has the other on its right shall give way, except as follows: • i. a power driven heavier than air a/c shall give way to airships, gliders and balloons; • ii. an airship shall give way to gliders and balloons; • iii. a glider shall give way to balloons; and • iv. a power driven a/c shall give way to a/c that are seen to be towing gliders or other objects or carrying a slung load. • When two aircraft operating at different altitudes are converging, the PIC of the higher aircraft shall give way to the lower aircraft.

  4. Avoidance • When two aircraft are approaching head-on or approximately the same altitude and there is a risk of collision, each pilot shall alter their heading to the right. • When overtaking an aircraft, the aircraft being overtaken has the right of way and the aircraft overtaking shall pass to the right. • When an aircraft is in flight or manoeuvring on the surface, the PIC shall give way to the aircraft that is landing or about to land.

  5. Avoidance • The PIC of an aircraft that is approaching an aerodrome to land shall give way to any aircraft at a lower altitude that is also approaching to land. • The PIC of an aircraft (as described above) shall not overtake or cut in front of a higher aircraft in the final stages of an approach.

  6. Avoidance • No person shall conduct or attempt to conduct a takeoff or landing in an aircraft until there is no apparent risk of collision with any aircraft, person, vessel, vehicle or structure in the takeoff or landing path.

  8. Aeronautical Rules And Facilities Rules of the Air Let's try a few review questions on Aeronautical Rules and Facilities: Question #1 - When two aircraft are approaching head-on or approximately the same altitude and there is a risk of collision, each pilot shall alter their heading to the left. T True F False

  14. Aircraft Lights Right wing green light visible 110° for 2 miles Left wing red light visible 110° for 2 miles Tail white light visible 140° for 2 miles Anti-collision white or red light visible 360°

  15. Flight Plan • A VFR flight plan shall be filed for all flights travelling more than 25NM from the departure aerodrome. • The purpose of the flight plan is to inform people where you are going and when you will be back. • Should be filed with an ATC or FSS. • Flight plans must be closed within 1 hour after landing.

  16. Flight Itinerary • A VFR flight itinerary may replace a flight plan and must be filed for all flights travelling more than 25NM from the departure aerodrome. • The purpose of a flight itinerary is to describe the route the pilot plans to take. • Should be filed with a responsible person. • Flight itinerary must be closed within 24 hours after landing.

  17. Cruising Altitudes • Flight altitudes must always be followed regardless if a flight plan has been filed. • Altitudes below 18,000 feet are stated in thousands. • Altitudes above 18,000 feet are referred to as flight levels. • Altitudes are measured from MSL.

  18. VFR Cruising Altitudes for Flights Between 3,000 feet and 18,000 feet: 000° - 179° Odd thousands plus 500' ASL 180° - 359° Even thousands plus 500' ASL VFR Cruising Altitudes begin at 3,000' AGL.

  19. Air Traffic Control Clearance It is an authorization from an ATC unit for an aircraft to proceed within controlled airspace under specific conditions. You, as a pilot, must ask for clarification if unsure of any meaning of any part of an ATC clearance. Once you accept it, you are required to comply with an ATC clearance. If you are VFR, you must read back the text of the clearance only if requested by ATC to do so.

  20. Air Traffic Control Instruction It is a directive issued by an ATC unit for air traffic control purposes. You are required to comply with and acknowledge receipt of an ATC instruction which is directed to you provided the safety of the aircraft is not jeopardized.
