How are they ambiguous?


The heading in the table says "Distance from clouds," and the
distances are stated as (for example) "500 feet below." It's not
clear whether the aircraft must be 500 feet below the clouds, or the
clouds must be 500 feet below the aircraft. Clearly, this part of the
FARs was not written by a lawyer.
