What Is Special Visual Flight Rules (SVFR) And When Are They Used?

Northstar VFR

JULY 21, 2024

The tower informed me that our airport had just gone to IFR due to the low cloud ceilings. Special VFR If the airport you’re landing at is reporting 1000’ ceilings or less, but you determine that you can get there safely without entering the clouds, then you can request what is called special VFR. I didn’t even notice it!

To start our flying day I must stress the most important part of flight planning, ADM, Aeronautical Decision Making. I called the clearance delivery number on the OXB NOTAM but they gave me another number to call. I decided to depart VFR and pick up my clearance in the air if I needed it. Departure Day!
