The standard vertical separation minima between two aircraft flying in the same direction above FL290 is…

  • A

    4000 feet.

  • B

    1000 feet.

  • C

    2500 feet.

  • D

    2000 feet.

Refer to figure.

  • In RVSM airspace, vertical separation above FL290 is 1000 ft => According to this rule, aircraft travelling on the same direction will be separated by twice the vertical separation: 1000 x 2 = 2000 ft.
  • In Non-RVSM airspace (standard), vertical separation above FL290 is 2000 ft => According to this rule, aircraft travelling on the same direction will be separated by twice the vertical separation: 2000 x 2 = 4000 ft.
