Marginal Visual Flight Rules - weather that is not bad enough to
require pilots to use cockpit instruments, but worse than fair
weather VFR conditions. Ferzample, a high cloud base with light rain
or haze that limits visibilty to some extent, but not so much as to
preclude a pilot finding his/her way by the ol' Mk.I eyeball.
