自主飞行规则（Autonomous Flight Rules， AFR）是一种新型的飞行规则，在这种规则中，飞机在自己选择的轨道上航行，同时与交通和天气相分离。AFR将与仪表和目视飞行规则（IFR和VFR）一起存在，作为任何经过适当培训和合格的操作员使用必要认证设备的三种可用飞行选择之一。从历史上看，地面分离服务是由于飞机开始在云层中飞行而无法看到彼此的需要而发展起来的。今天，全球导航、机载监视和机载计算技术使交通冲突管理功能能够与飞机上的导航程序完全集成。通过自分离，飞机可以比使用地面分离时操作更灵活，限制更少。详细描述了AFR概念，并提供了实用的方法，通过这种方法，自分离飞机可以与IFR和VFR飞机共享相同的空域，而不会干扰正在进行的空中交通管制过程。
Autonomous Flight Rules (AFR) are proposed as a new set of operating regulations in which aircraft navigate on tracks of their choice while self-separating from traffic and weather. AFR would exist alongside Instrument and Visual Flight Rules (IFR and VFR) as one of three available flight options for any appropriately trained and qualified operator with the necessary certified equipment. Historically, ground-based separation services evolved by necessity as aircraft began operating in the clouds and were unable to see each other. Today, technologies for global navigation, airborne surveillance, and onboard computing enable the functions of traffic conflict management to be fully integrated with navigation procedures onboard the aircraft. By self-separating, aircraft can operate with more flexibility and fewer restrictions than are required when using ground-based separation. The AFR concept is described in detail and provides practical means by which self-separating aircraft could share the same airspace as IFR and VFR aircraft without disrupting the ongoing processes of Air Traffic Control.
