Standard Separation applies betweens

a) All flights in Class A and B airspace
b) IFR Flights in Class C and D airspace
C) IFR and VFR in Class C airpsace
d) IFR and Special VFR flights
e) Special VFR Flights
f) Participating IFR flights in class F airspace
g) IFR flights in class G airspace being provided with an approach control service
h) A/c participating in Radar Advisory Service.

As far as standard seperation, i'll cover below FL245 coz I can't remember the RVSM stuff!

Analogue Radar Data:

3 Miles - When authorised below FL245
5 Miles - In Azimuth (side 2 side) - Between centes of radar returns and the returns do not overlap
5 Miles - In Range - Both a/c must be in coverage from same radar source


Plot Extracted data:
3 Miles - When authorised below FL245
5 Miles - In Azimuth - Both a/c within 80NM of known radar source
5 Miles - In range - Both a/c must be in coverage from same radar source
10 Miles - One or both aircraft outside 80 miles from single source but may be reduced by Authority.


I will be amazed if you are expected to know any of that for a board but, i think thats ure answer!
