Flight Visibilities

[MedicRyan]

I did a search, but did not come up with anything.

Does anyone know good acronym's for VFR flight visibilities for the various airspaces? I learned them all a while ago, but could not remember them. One of them was something like F111, or something.

Thanks,

Ryan

You're thinking of C152 and F111 for basic VFR controlled airspace minimums below and above 10,000 msl.

C152 airplanes typically fly below 10,000 msl and it stands for
C - 3 miles visibility (C is the third letter of the alphabet)
1 - 1000 ft above the clouds
5 - 500 ft below the clouds
2 - 2,000 feet laterally away from the clouds

F111 airplanes typically fly above 10,000 msl
F - Five miles visibility
1 - 1000 ft above the clouds
1 - 1000 ft below the clouds
1 - 1 mile laterally away from the clouds
