On
January 20th, VATUSA (VATSIM) implemented
DRVSM (Domestic Reduced Vertical
Separation Minima) throughout the CONUS
(Continental United States) and Alaska, as
well as the Oakland, Miami and New York
Oceanic airspaces. RVSM reduces the
vertical separation between aircraft to
1000 feet in opposite directions from
FL290 to FL410 (inclusive). The
definition of "westbound" and
"eastbound" flight remains
unchanged. The only change is in the
altitude structure:
- Odd Flight Levels: Magnetic Course
000-179 Degrees
- Even Flight Levels: Magnetic Course
180-359 Degrees
VATUSA is suggesting an equipment
suffix of "/W" or "/Q"
for aircraft wishing to follow real-life
standards and to simulate certification of
their aircraft for flight in RVSM
airspace. Aircraft are NOT REQUIRED
to file flight plan with this equipment
suffix. Aircraft choosing not to use
the appropriate equipment suffix WILL
NOT be denied access to the RVSM
altitudes.
