IFR) such that the aircraft remains below and clear of cloud and during which the crew are in continuous visual contact with the surface, so they must be able to assess the aircraft attitude and separation from the surface by external reference by day, and a clearly distinguishable external horizon by night. Visual Reference For descent below DH, a continuous or successive reference to a segment of at least 7 consecutive approach or runway lights or a combination of both or a segment of the runway established to be not less than 1000 feet (300m) long which includes the touchdown point. When the approach has been made with a full ILS or PAR, the consecutive lights can be reduced to 6; for a visual or part circuit based on circling minima, a pilot should have continuous sight of ground features which will enable him to establish the position of the aircraft in relation to the aerodrome and subsequently to remain within the notified visual manoeuvring area.
