S2E17 - Day-VFR Must-Haves

from The Deep Dive · host Cesar Lugo

🎙️ S2E17 – Day-VFR Must-Haves: The Legal Minimums of §91.205A visual-flight day may feel simple, but the FAA still demands a precise list of working instruments before you can leave the ramp. In this episode we walk through each item in 14 CFR §91.205 for day-VFR operations—using the “GOOSE ACAT” mnemonic to lock it into memory. You’ll learn why a faulty fuel gauge is a grounding item even with topped-off tanks, how to spot sneaky seat-belt placard violations, and what to do when an ELT battery is out of date. By the end, you’ll pre-flight knowing your aircraft is legal, airworthy, and ready for daylight skies.✈️ Memorize the minimums—fly within the law.
