Q

Leaving a clearance limit with no comms

A

Check radios/headset etc then squawk 7600

Clearance is part of approach

  • depart fix and start approach at EFC
  • if no EFC depart fix and start approach at filed ETA

Clearance is not part of approach

  • leave clearance limit at EFC time proceed to approach fix and start approach at flies ETA
  • if no EFC continue directly to approach fix and begin approach at filed ETA
