“Appendix 1 to OPS 1.465Minimum Visibilities for VFR Operations
Note 1: VMC Minima for Class A airspace are included for guidance but do not imply acceptance of VFR Flights in Class A airspace. | ||||
Note 2: When the height of the transition altitude is lower than 3 050 m (10 000 ft) AMSL, FL 100 should be used in lieu of 10 000ft. | ||||
Note 3: Cat A and B aeroplanes may be operated in flight visibilities down to 3 000 m, provided the appropriate ATS authority permits use of a flight visibility less than 5 km, and the circumstances are such, that the probability of encounters with other traffic is low, and the IAS is 140 kt or less.” | ||||
