1. Introduction
The information relates, in general to Lower Airspace. Lower Airspace is defined as that airspace up to Flight Level 95 (FL95); Middle Airspace is between FL100 and FL195 and Upper Airspace is deemed as that above FL195. No detailed information is included in respect of Upper Airspace. Pilots intending to carry out VFR flights at or above FL195 should consult the UK AIP.
Pilots of VFR flights within UK Airspace below FL 195 are invited to consult this guidance material on the understanding that it does not represent a substitute for the more comprehensive information contained in the AIP. In the event of confliction between information in this guide and the AIP, information in the AIP should be regarded as the authoritative source. Please note that the UK AIP can be viewed at www.ais.org.uk.
Certain sections of the airspace rules and regulations outlined in this Guide either do not apply to gliders or are applied differently. Glider pilots intending to operate in UK airspace should consult the UK Air Navigation Order, the UK Rules of the Air Regulations and the UK AIP to ascertain how the rules and regulations apply to their flight.
VFR flight is permitted in Visual Meteorological Conditions (VMC) by day within UK Airspace except that which is notified as Class ‘A’ Airspace.
The VMC minima are determined by class of airspace, altitude and airspeed; however, the pilot licence privileges notified at Schedule 8 of the UK Air Navigation Order (ANO) may impose more stringent requirements on PPL/NPPL/BCPL holders.
