REGULATIONS
RIGHT OF WAY
When two aircraft converge
In addition to the "see and avoid"
principle, FAR 91.113 outlines right-ofway rules for aircraft:
When a rule of this section gives
another aircraft the right-of-way, the
pilot shall give way to that aircraft and
may not pass over, under, or ahead of
it unless well clear.
(c) In distress. An aircraft in distress
has the right-of-way over all other air
traffic.
(d) Converging. When aircraft of
the same category are converging
at approximately the same altitude
(except head-on, or nearly so), the
aircraft to the other's right has the
right-of-way. If the aircraft are of
different categories-
(1) A balloon has the right-of-way over
any other category of aircraft;
(2) A glider has the right-of-way
over an airship, powered parachute,
weight-shift-control aircraft, airplane,
or rotorcraft.
(3) An airship has the right-of-way
over a powered parachute, weightshift-control aircraft, airplane, or
rotorcraft.
However, an aircraft towing or refueling other aircraft has the right-of-way
over all other engine-driven aircraft.
(e) Approaching head-on. When
aircraft are approaching each other
head-on, or nearly so, each pilot of
each aircraft shall alter course to the
right.
(f) Overtaking. Each aircraft that is
being overtaken has the right-of-way
and each pilot of an overtaking aircraft
shall alter course to the right to pass
well clear.
(g) Landing. Aircraft, while on final
approach to land or while landing,
have the right-of-way over other
aircraft in flight or operating on the
surface, except that they shall not
take advantage of this rule to force an
aircraft off the runway surface which
has already landed and is attempting
to make way for an aircraft on final
approach. When two or more aircraft
are approaching an airport for the
purpose of landing, the aircraft at the
lower altitude has the right-of-way,
but it shall not take advantage of this
rule to cut in front of another that is
on final approach to land or to overtake that aircraft.
Right-of-way rules for water operations are listed in FAR 91.115.
