2. ForeFlight - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ForeFlight

   The app supports flight planning features including letting pilots select routes based on IFR waypoints or using waypoints, checkpoints, or geographic features for VFR flight. [6] Pilots can factor instrument departure, arrival, and approach procedures into their route as well as traffic pattern entries to airports.

3. Visual flight rules - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_flight_rules

   VFR requires a pilot to be able to see outside the cockpit to control the aircraft's altitude, navigate, and avoid obstacles and other aircraft. [3] Governing agencies establish specific requirements for VFR flight, including minimum visibility, and distance from clouds, to ensure that aircraft operating under VFR are visible from enough distance to ensure safety.

4. Visual meteorological conditions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_meteorological...

   VFR / VMC visibility requirements in the US In aviation , visual meteorological conditions ( VMC ) is an aviation flight category in which visual flight rules (VFR) flight is permitted—that is, conditions in which pilots have sufficient visibility to fly the aircraft maintaining visual separation from terrain and other aircraft.

5. Flight plan - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flight_plan

   In the US, Canada and Europe for eastbound (heading 0–179 degrees) IFR flights, the flight plan must list an "odd" flight level in 2000 foot increments starting at FL190 (i.e., FL190, FL210, FL230, etc.); Westbound (heading 180–359 degrees) IFR flights must list an "even" flight level in 2000 foot increments starting at FL180 (i.e., FL180 ...

6. Airspace - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airspace

   Class G airspace extends from the surface to the base of the overlying Class E airspace. Although ATC has no authority or responsibility to control air traffic, pilots should remember there are visual flight rules (VFR) minimums which apply to Class G airspace, [14] and that flight over private property should not be presumed valid.

7. Airspace class (United States) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Airspace_class_(United_States)

   Most airspace in the United States is class E. The airspace above FL600 is also class E. [10] No ATC clearance or radio communication is required for VFR flight in class E airspace. VFR visibility and cloud clearance requirements are the same as for class C and D airspaces when below 10,000 feet (3,000 m) MSL.
