[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_flight_rules '''VFR'''] are applicable when the pilot can see around to '''navigate''' and to avoid other aircraft and obstacles. The altitude must be low enough to identify landmarks for navigation. The weather or minimal meteorological conditions to allow VFR are defined in [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_meteorological_conditions Visual Meteorological Conditions ('''VMC''')]. As can be expected one of the most important condition is good visibility. If VFR is not possible [[IFR]] must be used. | [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visual_flight_rules '''VFR'''] are applicable when the pilot can see around to '''navigate''' and to avoid other aircraft and obstacles.
