VFR traffic under the approach

Just because you are on an IFR flight plan does not relieve you or your responsibility to see and avoid in VFR conditions.

I mentioned there were still some airspace issues that needed to be worked out before those could function properly. I can hear approach telling me that is a remotely piloted vehicle under/over me now <g>. How would they maintain visual clearance?

I went to the USAF Museum for last month's lecture on UAV's.
The speaker commented how nice it was to be able to monitor the UAV and order carryout pizza.

John:

If you read through the earlier thread, you will find the IFR traffic was IMC at the time the two parties almost met in the air. :smile:
