instrumen yang dibutuhkan untuk terbang VFRSeorang calon profesional penerbangan bertanya lewat facebook­: “saya mau nanya soal IFR dengan VFR.. apa ya beda kedua instrument di atas?

VFR dan IFR adalah aturan untuk terbang, sedangkan instrumen apa saja yang dibutuhkan dalam setiap penerbangan tersebut ada dalam aturannya masing-masing. Tautan untuk pengenalan VFR dan IFR ada di bagian paling bawah dari tulisan ini. Untuk membahas perangkat apa sajakah yang diperlukan untuk terbang dengan aturan VFR dan IFR mari kita buka CASR part 91 ayat 205. CASR yang saya miliki pada waktu membuat tulisan ini adalah CASR 91 Amdt. 03/24 Agustus 2011 yang bisa anda download di website hubud untuk mendapatkan versi terbarunya. Tautannya juga dapat anda temukan di bawah tulisan ini.

As used in this section, "shore" means that area of the land adjacent to the water which is above the high water mark and excludes land areas which are intermittently under water.

Jika pesawat disewakan dan terbang di atas air dengan jarak lebih dari kemampuan glidingnya, maka untuk setiap penumpang wajib disediakan sebuah pelampung dan juga wajib untuk membawa paling tidak satu buah alat pyrotechnic signal yang bisa memberi sinyal dalam keadaan darurat di air. Hanya patut diingat alat pyrotechnic signal ini bisa menimbulkan resiko bahaya kebakaran jika tidak diperlakukan dengan hati-hati.
