Q

What is a WESA?

A

Weather Enhanced Safety Area

These yellow “highlighted” areas are designated 500 feet AGL, intended to increase the pilot’s options for selecting safe routes through areas of weather.

When operating below 1,500 feet AGL the pilot shall have a suitable emergency landing area within power off gliding distance at all times.

Q

Use of WESA is predicated on what?

A
  1. Each pilot will receive ground training on the geographic boundaries and the operating procedures therein. This includes the requirement for the pilot to ensure a “safe” landing area is available at all times while operating under this deviation.
  2. Minimum altitude is 500’ AGL
  3. The minimum visibility for “overland” operations is 3 statute miles and for “off shore” operations is 1 statue mile.
  4. Before conducting any tour operations under this deviation, each pilot must satisfactorily complete a route check of all applicable weather enhanced safety areas. The administrator and or his/her designated representative will conduct this check.
