Note that both flight and ground visibility must be at least 1 SM.

The quiz

The same regulation, [section] 91.175, furnishes a "comparable value of RVR and ground visibility" table in paragraph (h).

When 3/8 mile = 1/2 mile

Both references agree the procedure is only available at airports reporting ground visibility of one statute mile or more and having a standard (published) or special instrument approach procedure.

Beyond the MEA: getting as low as possible while remaining IFR can mean a non-stop, light or getting in on a visual. Asking ATC often is the key

The interpretation quotes an earlier (1980) NTSB order stating, "Controlling visibility is not ground visibility, as reflected by RVR values, but rather flight visibility, as measured from the cockpit of the aircraft." The now defunct Air Transportation Operators Inspector's Handbook provided a clearer description.

How far can you see?

** At least 1 statute mile ground visibility if taking off or landing.

Flying in the margins: understanding and flying marginal VFR weather involves more than just playing the game of ceiling and visibility numbers
