Agree

OMG, thank you for mentioning that the semi-circular rule doesn't apply when IFR in controlled airspace. I get my students on this question all the time!

Flight insight does such a good job!

Great video and summary. I’m mostly disregarding this regulation and using O2 above 8000’. The benefits outweigh the perceived discomfort. Although I haven’t been flying at night, I would use O2 above 5000’.

Great highlight of ASKING for lower! I was on a recent IFR flight in WA, in IMC, ATC passed along a PIREP for icing at my present altitude, far enough North to care but not to expect it where I was. All the same I asked, “how low can you get me?” And they could get me down another 1,000’ which was enough to break out and continue on without the risk of icing. Gladly worth the trade away of logging actual 😄

Always appreciate your content

Thanks for the video!

Literally having a stage check on this tomorrow

In Florida, Jax Center and Miami Center use a north/south altitude split. Since most traffic in Florida travels basically north or south, you will be assigned odd altitudes for northbound and even altitudes for southbound. However, as you mentioned, the FARs only state that you are required to fly “an altitude assigned by ATC”. Even many controllers do not know this FAR and will chastise you for filing “wrong altitude for direction of flight” (WAFDOF).

I wonder if Florida VFR flights follow this same unique north/south convention +500' ?

[@Skyhwkx]

Please can you make a video about how to read “in sequence” the SID/STAR + App charts! I’m starting my CPL/IR stage next month so I’m still confused about reading and understanding these things. Thanks again for your help 🫡

[@edgarxavier493]

Just to be clear, are these O2 requirements for IFR or also VFR as well.

[@JZimblean86]

Could you fly without oxygen in the last part of the airway if staying at exactly 14,000 ft? The regs say only altitudes ABOVE 14,000ft the crew needs oxygen….

[@thebadgerpilot]

Does oxygen have to be continuous like in a cannula? Or would the canned kind you take a “puff” out of count? I don’t aspire to fly that high, just curious
