PAVE Personal Minimums
Work through Pilot, Aircraft, enVironment and External pressures. Every answer is rated go, caution or no-go, and the bar at the bottom gives you the overall call.
Personal minimums are your own limits, set at or above the regulations, that you commit to before you are under pressure to make a decision.
Ratings follow the FAA personal minimums worksheet format. They are a starting point: adjust them to your own experience and training, and when in doubt, work with a CFI.
