miles is not prohibited, but good judgment would dictate that you keep out of the approach area. b. Reduced Visibility. It has always been recognized that precipitation reduces forward visibility. Consequently, although again it may be perfectly legal to cancel…

Exhaust Plumes (Smoke Stacks and Cooling Towers) a. Flight Hazards Exist Around Exhaust Plumes. Exhaust plumes are defined as visible or invisible emissions from power plants, industrial production facilities, or other industrial systems that release large amounts of vertically directed ... disturbances such as turbulence and vertical shear. Other identified potential hazards include, but are not necessarily limited to: reduced visibility, oxygen depletion, engine particulate contamination, exposure to gaseous oxides, and/or icing. Results of encountering a plume may include airframe damage…

completely cover an exposed surface regardless of duration. Visibility is not affected. 2. Moderate. Slow accumulation on ground. Visibility reduced by ice pellets to less than 7 statute miles. 3. Heavy. Rapid accumulation on ground. Visibility reduced by ice pellets…

Precipitation in any form poses a threat to safety of flight. Often, precipitation is accompanied by low ceilings and reduced visibility. Aircraft that have ice, snow, or frost on their surfaces must be carefully cleaned prior to beginning a flight…
