Once a pilot-in-command accepts a "land and hold short" (LAHSO) clearance, the clearance must be adhered to, just as any other ATC clearance, unless
an amended clearance is obtained or an emergency occurs
At some airports located in Class D airspace where ground visibility is not reported, takeoffs and landings under special VFR are
authorized by ATC if the flight visibility is at least 1 SM.
Pilots are required to have the anti-collision light system operating
during all types of operations, both day and night
After an ATC clearance has been obtained, a pilot may not deviate from that clearance, unless the pilot
receives an amended clearance or has an emergency
