Above FL290 the vertical separation between aircraft on reciprocal tracks will be…

  • A

    1000 ft within RVSM airspace, 2000 ft within all other airspace.

  • B

    1000 ft.

  • C

    4000 ft.

  • D

    2000 ft.

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, 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.
