About this episode
Topic of the show: Which air traffic instructions do we wish required mandatory readbacks? Are there any instructions that must be confirmed but are not found in the regulations? We also discuss a recent change at a towered airport which stopped allowing IFR departures off a runway that has been used safely for many years. Timely Feedback: 1. PATRON Tango Sierra shared our show with a couple list servers. Thank you! 2. PATRON Hotel Golf sent audio about bonehead instruction from ATC. 3. PATRON Mike Kilo illustrates user defined waypoint entry: https://youtu.be/Jj73rKDyBhg 4. PATRON Oscar Charlie has a simple ask for ATC. 5. PATRON Echo Golf sent audio about PDC and CPDLC.
