2  Reduced Vertical Separation Minimum (RVSM) Airspace

The airspace within the Vilnius FIR/UIR between FL 290 and FL 410 inclusive, as described in ENR 2.1, is EUR RVSM airspace.

Within this airspace, the vertical separation minimum shall be:

1. 1 000 FT (300 M) between RVSM approved aircraft;
2. 2 000 FT (600 M) between:

1. non-RVSM approved State aircraft and any other aircraft operating within the EUR RVSM airspace;
2. formation flights of State aircraft and any other aircraft operating within the EUR RVSM airspace;
   
3. an aircraft experiencing a communications failure in flight and any other aircraft, when both aircraft are operating within the EUR RVSM airspace.
