Air Law

1.3 General regulations

1.3.1 Application area

The air traffic rules apply to air traffic within Denmark and for air traffic

involving Danish aircraft.

BL 5-61 is being phased out, which means, among other things, that certain

provisions from 5-61 are overruled here by BL 7-100, e.g. VFR-Night rules and

rules for VFR flight without ground visibility. You can find current BL series

here.

EASA Operations PART NCO specifies procedures and requirements for
different types of operations with non-commercial aircraft.

When operating a Danish aircraft over the territory of a foreign state, the

provisions in BL 5-61 must be followed, along with any stricter deviations set by

the relevant state for VFR operations.

When flying in another country with a Danish aircraft, if the regulations are

more lenient there, the stricter Danish rules must be followed.

1.3.2 Compliance

The operation of an aircraft, either during flight or within an aerodrome's traffic

area, must comply with the general air traffic rules and, when flying, must also
adhere to visual flight rules or instrument flight rules, as well as the

requirements set for each airspace class (A – G), unless otherwise specified in

the AIP.

1.3.3 Pilot-in-Command's responsibility

The pilot-in-command is responsible for the safety of all persons and cargo on
board after the doors are closed. The pilot-in-command is also responsible for

the safe operation of the aircraft from the moment it is ready to move for flight

until it is stopped after the flight, with the engine(s) shut off.
