1.4.2 Instructions issued to VFR flights in class D airspace may comprise routeing
instructions, visual holding instructions, level restrictions and information on collision
hazards in order to establish a safe, orderly and expeditious flow of traffic. Where the
controller requires a VFR aircraft to hold at a specific point pending further clearance,
the controller will state this explicitly to the pilot. In the interests of shared
understanding among pilots and controllers, the term 'clearance limit' is defined in the
Glossary, but is not to be used as a phrase to delineate a restriction to a clearance.
1.4.3 Where there is a need for some mutual flexibility to facilitate a flight within controlled
airspace, e.g. a non-standard flight (NSF) or police flight, the controller may instruct
the pilot to remain within a specified area.
1.5 Special VFR Flights
1.5.1 Special VFR clearances are only issued for flights within Control Zones and are
normally at the request of the pilot. The pilot:
a) must comply with ATC instructions;
b) is responsible for ensuring that his flight conditions enable him to remain clear of
cloud, determine his flight path with reference to the surface and to keep clear of
obstructions;
c) is responsible for ensuring that he flies within the limitations of his licence;
d) is responsible for complying with the relevant low flying restrictions of Rules 5 and
6 of the Rules of the Air Regulations.
NOTE: Whilst the 1000 ft rule may not apply to a pilot in receipt of a Special VFR
clearance, the 'alight clear' rule always applies.
The responsibility to determine whether to accept a Special VFR clearance and still
comply with this rule rests with the pilot;
e) is responsible for avoiding aerodrome traffic zones unless prior permission for
penetration has been obtained from the relevant ATSU.
1.5.2 A full flight plan is not required for Special VFR flight but the pilot must give brief
details of the callsign, aircraft type and pilot’s intentions, including ETA at entry point.
A full flight plan is required if the pilot wishes his destination to be notified.
1.5.3 Aircraft are not normally given a specific height to fly but vertical separation from
aircraft flying above can be achieved by requiring the Special VFR flight to fly not
above a specified level (paragraph d) above must be borne in mind by pilots).
1.5.4 No separation will be provided between Special VFR flights which are flying in notified
areas or routes where an individual clearance is not required, or between flights using
such areas or routes and other flights on Special VFR clearances. Full details of the
procedures for Special VFR flights appear in the UK AIP, ENR, 1.2.
