Re: Lama accident in dense fog

Hi Bitmonx, I've done it in a military context where the better option was definately to vacate the current location and low flying mandatory but I've also done it in civilian contexts where IMHO the (in UK) 500ft rule does not preclude flying at,say, 10ft over open country......question is how do you know that you are no closer than 500ft to any etc...... when viz is 150ft. I believe I've always been legal......but I would say that, wouldn't I?
