What are the visibility and cloud clearance requirements for Class G airspace below 1200' AGL during the day?

The visibility and cloud clearance requirements for Class G airspace below 1200 feet AGL during the day stipulate that pilots must maintain at least 1 statute mile of visibility and need to remain 500 feet below clouds and 1000 feet above clouds. These requirements ensure that pilots have sufficient visual reference not only to see and avoid other aircraft but also to stay clear of clouds, which can impede visibility.

By adhering to these standards, pilots can enhance safety during flight operations at low altitudes in uncontrolled airspace. This regulation aims to minimize the risk of inadvertent entry into clouds and loss of visual reference, which is particularly critical when flying low to the ground and in lower visibility conditions.
