When aircraft in flight or operating on the ground which aircraft has the priority?
If two aircraft are approaching to land at the same time, the lower aircraft has the right of way to land. Please, do not maneuver your aircraft to take advantage of this rule. If you are the higher aircraft, simply apply power, climb back to pattern altitude and very carefully re-enter the pattern.
Who has the right of way when two aircraft are converging?
When a single aircraft is converging with an aircraft formation at approximately the same altitude (except head-on, or nearly so), the formation flight has the right of way. In other cases, the formation shall be considered as a single aircraft and the right-of-way rules of reference (d), subpart 91.113 apply.
When two aircraft are converging at approximately the same altitude the aircraft thathas the other on its right shall give way except that?
When two aircraft are on converging headings at approximately the same height, the aircraft that has the other on its right must give way, except that (CAR 162): power-driven heavier-than-air aircraft shall give way to airships, gliders and balloons.
Which one gets a priority at the airport runway a landing aircraft or a departing aircraft?
An aircraft landing or in the final stages of an approach to land shall normally have priority over an aircraft intending to depart from the same or an intersecting runway.
Which way do you turn when approaching a plane head-on?
When aircraft are approaching each other head-on, or nearly so, each pilot of each aircraft shall alter course to the right. (f) Overtaking. Each aircraft that is being overtaken has the right-of-way and each pilot of an overtaking aircraft shall alter course to the right to pass well clear.
What is an overtaking aircraft?
What action is required when two aircraft of the same category converge with head on?
What action is required when two aircraft of the same category converge, but not head-on? A) The faster aircraft shall give way. B) The aircraft on the left shall give way….1.3.0.9.6.A.1.

What is converging in aviation?
Convergence. The condition that exists when the distribution of winds within a given area is such that there is a net horizontal inflow of air into the area.
Who has the right of way when overtaking another aircraft?
Each aircraft that is being overtaken has the right-of-way and each pilot of an overtaking aircraft shall alter course to the right to pass well clear.
When aircraft are approaching each other head-on or nearly so?
When aircraft are approaching each other head-on, or nearly so, each pilot of each aircraft shall alter course to the right. (f) Overtaking. Each aircraft that is being overtaken has the right-of-way and each pilot of an overtaking aircraft shall alter course to the right to pass well clear. (g) Landing.
Do airships have the right of way over planes?
(3) An airship has the right-of-way over a powered parachute, weight-shift-control aircraft, airplane, or rotorcraft. However, an aircraft towing or refueling other aircraft has the right-of-way over all other engine-driven aircraft.
When two planes are approaching an airport for the purpose of landing?
When two or more aircraft are approaching an airport for the purpose of landing, the aircraft at the lower altitude has the right-of-way, but it shall not take advantage of this rule to cut in front of another which is on final approach to land or to overtake that aircraft.
