I’m just a VFR pilot with experience in nothing more complex than a C 172…about VFR
I am under the impression that VFR over the California coast would require…
- maintain 2000 feet from human structures. (both horz and vertical sep)
- maintain 1000 feet below ceiling.
- Stay out of Class D airspace without permission.
- 3 miles vis min.
If the ceiling is 2000 feet…that means I don’t fly…period.
Right.?
I assume that staying at least 2000 feet from human structures is partially based on the need to
minimize noise impact on people from my loud aircraft.
So…don’t the same rules apply to VFR in a copter?
And don’t complex, expensive copters require a co pilot? Insane if FAA doesn’t require Co pilot…right?
