What is the ideal spacing between planes?

What is the distance for flying aircraft set by the regulations? Commercial aircraft flying below 29,000 feet must maintain a vertical separation of 1,000 feet. Any higher and the separation increases to 2,000 feet, except in airspace where Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) applies.

What altitude should be entered for your cruising level?

According to FAR 91.159, if you’re more than 3,000 AGL, you need to be flying an odd-thousand MSL altitude +500 feet on a magnetic course of 0-179. And if you’re flying a magnetic course of 180-359, you should fly an even-thousand altitude +500 feet.

How much runway does a Cessna 152 need?

For instance, a quick study of available stats shows that a Cessna 152 requires less than 500 feet to stop, while Cherokees, 172s and such all fall into a required runway range of 550 to 650 feet.

How much runway does a Cessna 150 need?

Takeoff distance (50′) 1,385. Landing distance (50′) 1,075. STANDARD DATA: (Aerobat) Seats 2.

What is the minimum lateral separation between aircraft?

60 miles
Therefore, the sum of distances “a” and “b”; i.e., the protected airspace of Aircrafts A and B, establishes the lateral separation minimum (60 miles) applicable for either flight relevant to the other.

What is the minimum vertical separation between aircraft?

Within airspace where RVSM procedures are suspended, the vertical separation minimum between all aircraft will be 2,000 feet above FL290.

How far can a Cessna 152 fly?

How far can you fly in a Cessna 152?

The Cessna 152’s range depends on certain variables. A 152 with long range tanks could fly as far as 690 NM (1200 km or 800 miles), but to do that you’d have to climb to 10’000′, reduce the power and fly for 8.7 hours, which is a very long time in a 152.
