IFR ? -- Doesn't that mean

" I Follow Railroad Tracks? "

Actually my real question as an avionics technician and not a pilot is
out in the wide open spaces in the USA where people like veterinarians
use small planes to reach farms in a large area they cover.
Is it legal to land a small plane on a completely vacant of traffic
country road ? And legal or not do they do it anyway ?


Please send a copy of the answer to me also at

Thank You

There are exceptions, but, in general, roads are a bad idea. I've never
landed on one, but I have move an aircraft a couple miles down a two lane
country road - It was surprising how many things are less than 1/2 a
wingspan apart from the middle of the road.

(The airplane (Navion) had been landed in a field and we were moving it to a
sod farm that had a "runway" down the middle)

One time it worked out (for someone else):
