Default Confusion about when it's my navigation, and when it's ATC

Why don't you just quote the relevant text from the beginning?


Because I chose not to.




Found it, thanks. I note, however, that some parts of 91.129
specifically mention Class D, while others do not. The implication of
this is that only the parts that do not mention Class D explicitly
will apply in other airspaces. Part (e):


(e) Minimum Altitudes. When operating to an airport in Class D airspace,
each pilot of ...



explicitly mentions Class D airspace, and thus would not appear to
apply to other airspaces.

How do you know that this part applies to all airspaces? The
distinction between parts mentioning Class D and those not mentioning
it appears to be deliberate.


The provisions of 91.129 apply to Class B and C airspace unless there is
something in the Class B or C rules that *clearly* countermands some
part of 91.129

In the case of Class C ATC can waive appropriate requirements of 91.129;
in Class B it doesn't say that.

With the issue of remaining on, or above the ILS G/S in VFR, ATC would
never waive that.
