Right of way question
Asked by: Neal 9525 views FAA Regulations, General Aviation, Private Pilot
Intersecting traffic yeilds to the right, that is easy. My question is if the intersecting traffic is at different speed and the angle is not 90 degrees. If a higher speed plane approaches a lower speed plane, same altitude and the angle is 45 or so so the slower plane can't see the craft approaching from it's right side the rule is the slower plane would need to give right of way.
So, slower plane heading 150 @ 90 knots. Quicker plane heading 090 intersecting from right 45 degree at 120 knots.
