The minimum equipment required for an aircraft in order for a pilot to request special
VFR is...

Mandatory cruising altitudes start at - Answers -3000 feet AGL
What is the standard vertical separation minima that ATC must apply between aircraft
above FL290 outside RVSM airspace? - Answers -2000 feet
, Explanation: Even though the cruising levels are spaced 4 000 feet apart, above FL290,
they result in a vertical separation of 2 000 feet. For e.g. a pilot on a magnetic track of
090° chooses to fly FL290 (or any 4 000 feet higher). Another pilot on a magnetic track
of 270 chooses to fly at FL310 (or any 4 000 feet higher). Their vertical distance from
each other then is 2 000 feet.
