A question that turned into a discussion at work tonight:
What is the minimum lateral separation from a thunderstorm while in VFR?
After several opinions, including my own, "As far way as I can frikken get...", we consulted a FAAST circular, which stated 5 miles, but 20 miles is recommended.
Now for the REAL question, which wasn't clear, and caused much chatter on a SLOWWW evening:
Is that in miles, or nautical miles?
