Each is defined by varying ceilings and visibility. They stand for Visual Flight Rules, Marginal Flight Rules, Instrument Flight Rules, and Low Instrument Flight Rules. IFR = Ceilings between 500’ and 999’ AGL and/or visibility between 1 and 3 miles.

That’s correct, you can earn your instrument rating with flight time only in simulated conditions. This is because instrument flight rules (IFR) and instrument meteorological conditions (IMC) are much less prevalent in certain areas of the world.

Class B airspace is also charted on VFR Sectionals and instrument flight rules (IFR) Enroute Low Altitude charts. This central core extends up to around 10,000 feet MSL, the airspace’s ceiling. However, the ceiling for each shelf is the same as the core. The shelves extend outwards from the core.

Green – VFR ( Visual Flight Rules ) Ceiling > 3,000 ft. C ( 12°F)/-11.0°C C ( 12°F) Remark: Very light icing In other words, typical gorgeous day atop Mt. Washington! Years ago, when we first had access to live, inflight METARs, I would have fun with my first officers by pulling up Mt Washington’s METAR.

I expected to manage some cloud layers during the New York portion of the flight, but the forecast called for a high ceiling at Northeast Philadelphia Airport. However, there was a presidential TFR (temporary flight restriction) around Scranton that lay on a direct line between Sodus and Philly. Famous last words.)
