- Chapter 4. Air Traffic Control › Section 4. ATC Clearances and Aircraft Separation › 4-4-3. Clearance Items
Clearance Items ATC clearances normally contain the following: a. Clearance Limit. The traffic clearance issued prior to departure will normally authorize flight to the airport of intended landing. Many airports and associated NAVAIDs are collocated with the same name and/or ... identifier, so care should be exercised to ensure a clear understanding of the clearance limit. When the clearance limit is the airport of intended landing, the clearance should contain the airport name followed by the word “airport.” Under certain conditions…

clearance void time expires, it does not cancel the departure clearance or IFR flight plan. It withdraws the pilot’s authority to depart IFR until a new departure release/release time has been issued by ATC and is acknowledged ... pilot. 3. Pilots who depart at or after their clearance void time are not afforded IFR separation and may be in violation of 14 CFR section 91.173 which requires that pilots receive an appropriate ATC clearance before operating…
- 14 CFR § 91.123 Compliance with ATC clearances and instructions.
Compliance with ATC clearances and instructions. (a) When an ATC clearance has been obtained, no pilot in command may deviate from that clearance unless an amended clearance is obtained, an emergency exists, or the deviation is in response ... traffic alert and collision avoidance system resolution advisory. However, except in Class A airspace, a pilot may cancel an IFR flight plan if the operation is being conducted in VFR weather conditions. When a pilot is uncertain of an ATC…
- Chapter 4. Air Traffic Control › Section 4. ATC Clearances and Aircraft Separation › 4-4-9. VFR/IFR Flights
VFR/IFR Flights A pilot departing VFR, either intending to or needing to obtain an IFR clearance en route, must be aware of the position of the aircraft and the relative terrain/obstructions. When accepting a clearance below the MEA/MIA/MVA/OROCA, pilots ... responsible for their own terrain/obstruction clearance until reaching the MEA/MIA/MVA/OROCA. If pilots are unable to maintain terrain/obstruction clearance, the controller should be advised and pilots should state their intentions. NOTEOROCA is a published altitude which provides 1,000 feet…
- Chapter 2: The Air Traffic Control System › Communication Facilities › ATC Towers
ATC Towers Several controllers in the tower cab are involved in handling an instrument flight. Where there is a dedicated clearance delivery position, that frequency is found in the A/FD and on the instrument approach chart for the departure airport ... Where there is no clearance delivery position, the ground controller performs this function. At the busiest airports, pre-taxi clearance is required; the frequency for pre-taxi clearance can be found in the A/FD. Taxi clearance should be requested…

pilot is also expected to use the appropriate aircraft call sign to acknowledge all ATC clearances, frequency changes, or advisory information. c. Each pilot who deviates from an ATC clearance in response to a Traffic Alert and Collision Avoidance System ... resolution advisory must notify ATC of that deviation as soon as possible. d. When weather conditions permit, during the time an IFR flight is operating, it is the direct responsibility of the pilot to avoid other aircraft since VFR flights…
