The benefits of RVSM include: Increased Capacity: By reducing the vertical separation between aircraft, more aircraft can safely operate in a given volume of airspace. Efficiency: RVSM allows aircraft to fly at more fuel-efficient altitudes, which can lead to cost savings for airlines.

Am I required to have ACAS/TCAS for RVSM operations? Not in the United States, or the NAT and PAC oceanic areas. However, Eurocontrol has mandated the use of ACAS II in European airspace for all aircraft over 15,000 kg (33,000 lbs) and as of 2005, aircraft 12,500 lbs and over are required to have ACAS II.

RVSM was implemented to reduce the vertical separation above flight level ( FL ) 290 from 2000-ft minimum to 1000-ft minimum. It allows aircraft to safely fly more optimum profiles, gain fuel savings and increase airspace capacity.

Separation standards within RVSM Airspace Within RVSMairspace (between FL290 and FL410 inclusive) the vertical separation minimum is: 1000ft (300m) between RVSM-approved aircraft, and. 2000ft (600m) between non-RVSM approved state aircraft and any other aircraft operating within RVSM airspace.

You can receive RVSM training at a Part 142 facility or others approved by the FAA either in person or online. After submitting a complete application package to the appropriate FAA office, the office manager or operations supervisor will assign an inspector to review the information submitted.

Regulatory Requirements Two independent altitude measurement systems; An altitude alerting system; An automatic altitude control system; and. A secondary surveillance radar (SSR) transponder with altitude reporting system that can be connected to the altitude measurement system in use for altitude keeping. (IR-OPS SPA.

The equipment suffix informs ATC: Whether or not the operator and aircraft are authorized to fly in RVSM airspace. The navigation and/or transponder capability of the aircraft (e.g., advanced RNAV, transponder with Mode C).
