NOTE: During all phases of flight, cylinder head temperatures and T.I.T. should be monitored. Use of
cowl flaps, power and mixture settings should be determined in consideration of cylinder head
temperatures and T.I.T.
CLASS B AIRSPACE OPERATIONS
NOTE: Class B airspace operations are conducted under IFR or Controlled VFR only. Any and all changes
to the flight including but not limited to altitude and routing changes must be conducted only after the
appropriate clearance from ATC has been obtained, or ATC must be immediately advised in the event of
changes required due to an emergency.
Controlled VFR Requirements
Pilots intending to fly CVFR SHALL file a flight plan and obtain an ATC clearance PRIOR to entering
Class B airspace.
CVFR flights must be conducted in accordance with procedures designed for use by IFR flights,
except when IFR weather conditions are encountered, the pilot of a CVFR flight must avoid such
weather conditions. This should be accomplished by:
Requesting an amended ATC clearance which will enable the aircraft to remain in VFR weather
conditions.
Requesting an IFR clearance if the pilot has a valid Instrument Rating and the aircraft is
equipped for IFR flight.
Equipment Requirements
Two-way radio communication equipment
Radio navigation equipment to be used to navigate the flight planned route (GPS, VOR, ADF,
etc)
Transponder with automatic pressure altitude reporting equipment (Mode C or Mode S at
minimum)
Communication Requirements
Continuous listening watch must be maintained by a flight crew member on a radio frequency
assigned by ATC.
Except as otherwise authorized by ATC, when the aircraft is over a reporting point a position report
is transmitted to the appropriate unit or, when so directed by ATC, to an FSS.
