Episode 253 Show Notes
Topic of the show: On this week’s show, we will discuss some of the intricacies of filing an IFR flight plan to an airport without an instrument approach procedure. What approach options exist? Do you need an alternate airport? And when you depart, what happens on the controller side of things when issuing your clearance? We also discuss checkrides, atypical phraseology, and more of your awesome aviation feedback!
Timely Feedback:
- 1. Patron SC sent follow up to last week’s episode topic.
- 2. Towers without FDIO can sometimes give you VFR codes.
Feedback
- Patron WM sent in a check ride story.
- Patron AD sent an audio question about phraseology he had never heard.
