Which FAA regulation specifies flight visibility for instrument landings?

• A. 91.175
• B. 91.205
• C. 61.3
• D. 14 CFR 91 Subpart A

Answer: (A)

The rule that sets instrument-landing minimums is 14 CFR 91.175. This regulation specifies the weather conditions pilots must have to perform an instrument approach and continue to a landing, including the required flight visibility (or, when reported, the runway visual range) for different approach types. It clarifies what you must have in order to descend below MDA/DA and land under IFR, tying the minimums directly to instrument approaches and their published minima. The other options don’t establish landing minimums: 91.205 covers required equipment and conditions for VFR and IFR, 61.3 deals with certificates and authorizations, and 14 CFR 91 Subpart A contains general rules.
