Air Law

1.3.6.7 East-West Rule

All aircraft flying VFR above the transition altitude must, when performing

cross-country flights, follow the rule that there are specific levels to fly at when

heading east, and different levels for flying west.

This shows how VFR cross-

country flights are conducted.

Be aware that aircraft climbing

or descending cannot follow

these instructions.

If the True Track is measured at 181° and the variation is 3°E, then the Magnetic

Track (MT) becomes 178°, and one can use flight levels (FL) such as 35, 55, 75,

and so on.

1.3.6.8 Airdrops and dispersion from aircraft

Nothing may be dropped or dispersed from an aircraft

unless permission has been granted by the Danish Civil

Aviation Administration. This also applies to skydivers.

However, this does not apply if you need to jump out yourself.

1.3.6.9 Flying over water

a. When flying over water with a single-engine aircraft at a distance

exceeding gliding distance from a land area suitable for emergency

landing, the aircraft must be equipped with life vests for all persons on

board, placed easily accessible near each seat.
