Vertical separation between airliners flying under instrument
flight rules (IFR) is normally 1,000'.


Vertical separation between aircraft flying under IFR is 1000'
at and below FL 290, 2000' above FL 290. It doesn't matter if
they're airliners or not.

Yes Steven, I took into consideration the knowledge level of the
person requesting the information.

The vertical separation of IFR
jetliners and general aviation aircraft flying under visual
flight rules (VFR) is normally 500'.


IFR/VFR vertical separation is 500' in Class B and Class C
airspace, it doesn't matter if they're jetliners or general
aviation. There is no IFR/VFR separation in Class D or Class E
airspace.

Yes Steven, I took into consideration the knowledge level of the
person requesting the information.


There is NO separation required for two VFR aircraft except to
not cause a collision hazard.


VFR/VFR separation is required in Class B airspace.

Yes Steven, I took into consideration the knowledge level of the
person requesting the information.
