#### Remarks - Where flight visibility has been reduced to not less than 1500m, flights may be permitted at speeds that give adequate opportunity to observe other traffic or any obstacles in time to avoid collision (dependent on the country regulations). - Helicopters may be permitted to operate in less than 1500m flight visibility if they can observe other traffic and any obstacles in time to avoid collision (depends on country regulations). - The VMC minima in **Class A airspace** are included for guidance to pilots and do not imply acceptance of **VFR flights in Class A airspace** automatically. ##### Transition Altitude Consideration

⚠ **When the height of the transition altitude is lower than 3050m or 10000ft AMSL, FL100 (flight level) should be used.**
