+ | Sometimes if they are busy, they may ask for a time for airspace penetration. | ||
+ | What does “no service required” mean? Exactly what it says; ATC will not have to (though they will likely try – it’s ingrained) give you any service, e.g., basic service, traffic service, etc. and that way they will not bug you unless they have to. | ||
+ | Remember that distances, flight levels, bearings, and times are read as separate digits e.g., “GUSSI radial 120° at 20nm, FL140 is spoken as “GUSSI radial one two zero degrees, two zero nautical miles at Flight Level one four zero”. | ||
+ | When giving a distance and bearing it’s from a waypoint, not to the waypoint. It’s possibly easier to say for example, North West of GUSSI (for example). Also, it’s best to work in nautical miles. | ||
+ | The reason for telling ATC the maximum level you expect to cross the airway is that ATC must sterilize a defined airspace box to protect other IFR or VFR traffic. Giving ATC a maximum FL makes it easier for them. | ||
