    (1) Special VFR clearances allow pilots to operate in less than basic VFR weather minimums within controlled airspace, including ceilings as low as 1,000 feet and visibility as low as 1 mile. (2) Cruise clearances allot pilots a block of specified altitude from the minimum en route altitude up to and including the specified altitude, clearing them for any approach at their destination. (3) Contact approaches are conducted in lieu of a standard or special instrument approach when pilots maintain visual flight rules visibility and remain clear of clouds while ATC provides separation, with pilots assuming responsibility for obstacle clearance.

    Phraseology example
    Cruise Clearance
    Allots pilots a block of Specified altitude
    altitude

    From MEA up to and


    including the specified
    altitude.

    Clears pilot for any approach


    MEA
    at the destination.
    Cruise Clearance
    Climbs and descents at
    pilots discretion.

    Further clearance is
    required after the pilot
    reports leaving an
    altitude.
    Cruise Clearance
    Phraseology:

    Cessna 220WC, cleared direct to Ogden cruise 12,000


    Contact Approach
    A contact approach is an approach into an airport in lieu of a standard or
    special Instrument approach

    Pilot must make the request.


    Example: Seminole N978WC
    request contact approach

    Airport MUST have IFR procedures.


    Contact Approach
    ATC will then issue the approach, they can terminate the clearance if
    the deem the situation unsafe.

    Example: Seminole 8WC Cleared contact approach (and, if


    required) at or below(altitude) (routing)if not possible (alternative
    procedures) and advise

    Pilot required to have: 1 SM visibility and clear of clouds,must remain


    VFR. Pilot must advise ATC if unable to continue.
    Contact Approaches
    ATC will provide IFR/SVFR separation.
    Pilot assumes all responsibility for obstacle clearances.

    This type of approach is not designed to:


    Be used on an IFR clearance to an airport
    with no IAPs.
    Approach one airport, terminate and
    continue to a different airport.
    VFR on Top
    VFR on top is an IFR clearance given to
    aircraft on an IFR Flight plan that happens
    to be operating in VMC.
    Not to be confused
    with VFR over the Top
    VFR on Top

    When acting under a VFR on Top Clearance,


    the pilot must maintain all VFR visibility,
    cloud clearance and traffic separation
    requirements, and maintain appropriate VFR
    cruising altitudes.
    VFR on Top
    Requesting a VFR on Top Clearance
    Notifying ATC of VFR conditions
    They will respond Maintain VFR On Top at this
    altitude, report leaving VFR conditions
    In the remarks section of a flight plan
    Can be used for departing IFR and
    Cruising VFR
    Usually given in conjunction with a cruise
    clearance
