Get Ifr Clearance 2020-2025

Reports should include aircraft identification, equipment affected, degree to which the capability to operate under IFR in the ATC system is impaired, and the nature and extent of assistance desired from ATC.

IFR means a ceiling less than 1,000 feet AGL and/or visibility less than three miles. Low IFR (LIFR) is a sub-category of IFR. VFR means a ceiling greater than 3,000 feet AGL and visibility greater than five miles.

An IFR clearance is an authorization for an aircraft to operate in the IFR System. The 5 critical parts of an IFR clearance are easily remembered using the acronym CRAFT, which stands for Clearance Limit, Route, Altitude, Frequency, and Transponder.

When you're flying on an IFR flight plan, a VFR-on-top clearance comes with a few stipulations: You must fly at the appropriate VFR altitude as prescribed in FAR 91.159. You must comply with VFR visibility and distance-from-cloud criteria prescribed in FAR 91.155.

The best way is to call Approach or Center on the radio. Use the same frequency you were on before you switched to CTAF. Don't call FSS on the phone to cancel unless you can't reach ATC on the ground. If you're not sure if you can get ATC on the ground, ask the controller who cleared you for the approach.

Formerly Lockheed Martin Flight Service, you can pick up an IFR clearance over the phone by calling 1-800-WX-BRIEF or 1-888-766-8267 (dedicated for IFR clearances).

An abbreviated IFR departure clearance will include at least the destination airport, altitude, along with DP Name, Number, and/or Transition, if appropriate. The abbreviated departure clearance "...CLEARED AS FILED..." will always contain the name of the destination airport filed in the flight plan.

Cleared as Filed – This means the routing will be what the pilot originally filed in their flight plan (or as later amended) and does not relate to an expected clearance. Routing that is “cleared as filed” is an ATC function.

IFR flights are subject to ATC clearance in airspace classes A, B, C, D and E. VFR flights are subject to ATC clearance in airspace classes B, C and D. They are not permitted in class A airspace and are not controlled in class E.

An IFR (Instrument Flight Rules) flight plan is filed anytime a pilot conducts a flight in instrument conditions or maintains navigation and obstacle clearance with reference to aircraft instruments only. While on an IFR flight plan, separation from other aircraft is provided by Air Traffic Control.

An IFR clearance will contain in this order: your identification, the clearance limit (usually your destination airport), the departure procedure, altitudes, any holding instructions, any other special information, radio frequency and transponder code information.

One way to remember the components of an ATC clearance for IFR is CRAFT: Clearance limit. Route. Altitude. Frequency for departure. Transponder code.
