ICAO flight plan form completion guide. The information is provided here as a handy reference. For the full instructions you should obtain a copy of the latest AIC on the subject from your local authority.
Flight, as well as the latest instructions for North Atlantic (NAT) Flight Plans. Included in this publication are step-by-step instructions for the completion of the CA48/RAF F2919 FPL Form.
Example of a completed flight plan form. An ICAO format flight plan must be used when (FAA): The flight will enter international airspace (including Oceanic airspace controlled by FAA facilities) The flight expects routing or separation based on Performance Based Navigation, e.g. RNAV 1; The flight will enter RVSM airspace
With Standard Pressure (1013.2 mb) set, an aircraft altimeter indicates Pressure Altitude (Flight Level), and is used by all aircraft operating above the transition altitude to provide a common datum for vertical measurement.
Flight Level (FL) A surface of constant atmosphere pressure which is related to a specific pressure datum, 1013.2hPa, and is separated from other such surfaces by specific pressure intervals. Altitude above sea-level in 100 feet units measured according to a standard atmosphere.
Flight level and standard pressure. A Flight Level (FL) is the vertical distance of an aircraft above the ISOBARIC SURFACE of 1013.25hPa (hecto Pascal) or 29.92 in Hg (inches of Mercury). An ISOBARIC SURFACE is the invisible landscape that connects all points with the same atmospheric pressure.
