A pilot must not operate an aircraft within a restricted area designated under Part 71 unless that pilot has the approval of the administering authority responsible for the restricted area to operate within that area; and complies with any conditions promulgated for operation within the restricted area; and complies with any conditions imposed by the administering authority for operation within the restricted area.
When may you operate in a low flying zone?
Cannot operate by night. Can operate by day if pilot is recieving dual instruction, PIC holds an instructor rating or is briefed on the boundaries of the LFZ and entry/ exit to it, briefed on conditions of flight, complies with conditions,before entry PIC reports details of flight on VHF frequency and maintains a listening watch on said frequency.
When can you operate in a military operating area?
Never unless approval from administering authority is given and PIC complies with conditions of area and authority.
What are the rules for entering an MBZ?
PIC must broadcast position and intentions on entry, when joining an aerodrome circuit, before entering a runway for takeoff, any other time when time intervals are set. PIC must maintain a listening watch and activate landing or anti collision lights.
PIC doesn’t have to do the above if they don’t have an operable radio and are ferrying the aircraft to get the radio fixed and another pilot makes reports if possible.
