Visibility is considered unrestricted if greater than 6 miles???
Flying from Buffalo, NY, to Reading, PA, this afternoon, I call up
Cleveland Flight Watch to report a weather pirep. "Visibility is restricted in haze to about one five miles," I include. "45 Whisky," the voice responds, "visibility is considered unrestricted if it is greater than six miles so I am going to put unrestricted." "Huh?" I let slip out, "Really?" "Yes, really," he answers. If this is indeed true, I have been doing it wrong for almost 1,000 hours now. Too late tonight for me to go digging through the AIM, but is this really true? Imagine being VFR through typical New England haze of 7 miles and being told by Fligh****ch that pireps all over the region are reporting unrestricted visibility. That just doesn't seem right. -- Peter
