INSTRUMENT FLIGHT RULES [ICAO]- A set of rules governing the conduct of flight under instrument meteorological conditions.

Instrument Meteorological Conditions (IMC) - Meteorological conditions expressed in terms of visibility, distance from clouds, and ceiling less than the minimums for visual meteorological conditions (VMC).

With two pilots working the problem and being in visual meteorological conditions, it was easy for one pilot to fly the aircraft while the other pilot ran the appropriate pilot operating handbook electrical checklist.

The ceiling also refers to the height of the lowest cloud layer above the ground, below which Visual meteorological conditions exist, permitting flight by visual flight rules.

There are times where the pilot's visibility outside the cockpit could be visual meteorological conditions yet they must still operate as if they were in IMC conditions. This is most commonly when a pilot is operating in class A airspace.

CLASS I NAVIGATION Operation of aircraft under VFR in visual meteorological conditions primarily based on 'see and avoid' procedures for all obstacles along the flight route as well as other aircraft.

I'm on an IFR flight plan and part of it in true IMC (instrument meteorological conditions). I break out at 4,000 feet in VMC (visual meteorological conditions) flew the ILS approach in VMC conditions.

Meteorological conditions expressed in terms of visibility, distance from clouds, and ceiling less than the minimums specified for visual meteorological conditions, requiring operations to be conducted under IFR.

Prescribed for the operation of aircraft in visual meteorological conditions (VMC).
