Flight levels above 18,000 ft
Asked by: tommytom 4459 views Airspace, FAA Regulations, Instrument Rating
Would anyone like to take a shot and explain WHY AIM 3-1-5 (VFR altitudes) suggest to add 500 ft to flight levels above 18,000 ft? 1) You must be instrument rated and on an instrument flight plan at 18,000ft and above. 2). When would anyone be VFR above 18,000.
AIM 3-1-5 seems to contradict the regulations...
Has anyone noticed this before?
