I was flying back to my home airport tonight, when I checked the awos, the weather visiblity was at 1 and 1/4. Class E airspace, I am flying VFR. I called center and asked for a Special VFR to get in. It took about 8 minutes before I got one. My question is I had a visual on the airport from 10 miles out. But the awos seems to get dust on it or something. (It is close to a gravel road.) I was just wondering if getting a special is required if I can see the airport from 10 miles out?
