They are to lower the floor of controlled airspace for the benefit of IFR pilots. This accomplishes two things: 1. Allows ATC to provide control to lower altitudes, primarily separation from other IFR aircraft. 2. Makes sure any there is sufficient visibility / cloud clearance for visual separation techniques to be used between any VFR aircraft that might be present. Changing weather has no effect on the floor of controlled airspace. I never said it did. |
