what is the exception to the vertical separation rule

a. Do not use mode c to effect vertical separation with an aircraft on a cruise clearance, contact approach or as specified in 5-15-4 b. Assign an Altitude to an aircraft only after the aircraft previously at that altitude is observed at or passing through another altitude separated from the first by the appropriate minima when: 1. severe turbulence is reported 2. aircraft are conducting military aerial refueling 3. the aircraft previously at that altitude has been issued a climb/descent at pilot's discretion

Aircraft not laterally separated, may be vertically separated by what methods?

a. assign altitudes to aircraft, provided valid mode C altitude information is monitored and the applicable separation minima is maintained at all times b. assign an altitude to an aircraft after the aircraft previously at that altitude has been issued a climb/descent clearance and is observed (valid mode c) or reports leaving the altitude

Wake Turbulence Separation Minimums

g. Separate aircraft operating directly behind or following an aircraft conducting an instrument approach by the minima specified and in accordance with the following: 1. When operating within 2,500 feet of the flight path of the leading aircraft over the surface of the earth and less than 1,000 feet below: (a) TERMINAL. Behind super: (1) Heavy - 6 miles. (2) Large - 7 miles. (3) Small - 8 miles. (b) EN ROUTE. Behind super - 5 miles, unless the super is operating at or below FL240 and below 250 knots, then: (1) Heavy - 6 miles. (2) Large - 7 miles. (3) Small - 8 miles. (c) Behind heavy: (1) Heavy - 4 miles. (2) Large or small - 5 miles. 2. Separate small aircraft behind a B757 by 4 miles when operating within 2,500 feet of the flight path of the leading aircraft over the surface of the earth and/or less than 500 feet below. h. In addition to subpara g, separate an aircraft landing behind another aircraft on the same runway, or one making a touch-and-go, stop-and-go, or low approach by ensuring the following minima will exist at the time the preceding aircraft is over the landing threshold: 1. Small behind large− 4 miles. 2. Small behind heavy− 6 miles. If the landing threshold cannot be determined, apply the above minima as constant or increasing at the closest point that can be determined prior to the landing threshold. i. TERMINAL. When NOWGT is displayed in an aircraft data block, provide 10 miles separation behind the preceding aircraft and 10 miles separation to the succeeding aircraft. j. TERMINAL. 2.5 nautical miles (NM) separation is authorized between aircraft established on the final approach course within 10 NM of the landing runway when operating in single sensor slant range mode and aircraft remains within 40 miles of the antenna and: 1. The leading aircraft's weight class is the same or less than the trailing aircraft; 2. Super and heavy aircraft are permitted to participate in the separation reduction as the trailing aircraft only; 3. An average runway occupancy time of 50 seconds or less is documented; 4. CTRDs are operational and used for quick glance references;
