CAAP Commercial Pilot License (CPL) Air Law Practice Exam

Session length

1 / 20

Which of the following is a requirement for landing at controlled aerodromes under VFR?

Ceiling must be at least 1200 feet and visibility at least 3km

Ceiling must be at least 1500 feet and visibility at least 6km

Ceiling can be less than 1500 feet if ATC clearance is obtained

The requirement for landing at controlled aerodromes under Visual Flight Rules (VFR) includes specific criteria for both ceiling and visibility. Generally, when operating under VFR, pilots must adhere to minimum visibility and ceiling limitations to ensure safe flight and landing conditions.

The statement about obtaining ATC clearance to land with a ceiling below 1500 feet is valid. While typical VFR minima set a ceiling of at least 1500 feet and visibility of 6 km for operations in controlled airspace, there are scenarios where ATC can provide clearance for a pilot to land if they hold adequate situational awareness and the circumstances allow it. This flexibility is essential for ensuring that pilots can safely operate under varying atmospheric conditions while maintaining safety and compliance with air traffic control instructions.

The other options do not accurately represent standard requirements for controlled aerodromes under VFR. This understanding emphasizes the need for pilots to be familiar with specific regulations and the role of air traffic control in managing these operations.

Ground visibility must always be more than 8km
