Why do you say "a little steep?" Clearly if you understand what is going on
there would not be a question. (assuming US/FAA) vfr traffic 500 feet above/below altimeter error allowed - 75 feet. deviation of 100 feet deviation of VFR traffic - 100 ft Add up those errors and you have only 150 ft of separation "Magnus" wrote in message ... I thought it was +/- 200 feet before you've violated if you are flying IFR, but someone just told me it's a 100 feet, which seems a little steep considering they use 1000 feet separations. |

Where can you read about the +/- 100 feet, I couldn't find it in the far-aim.

There is none for vfr traffic - but supposedly vfr traffic should be flying
on the 500 ft intervals. "Magnus" wrote in message ... Where can you read about the +/- 100 feet, I couldn't find it in the far-aim.

et... There is none for vfr traffic - but supposedly vfr traffic should be flying on the 500 ft intervals. When in cruise flight, above 3000' AGL. Doesn't sound like that would have applied in this particular case. |

When you don't want to crash into them.
