Here is a good one: If you are cleared for an approach, are you also
cleared for landing? You see, the biz jet was apparently flying the HGR
VOR 9 approach, that starts well outside the "D" airspace. When he
called up HGR tower, he appologised for a late hand-off (must mean he
was talking with ATC). HGR tower told him they didn't have a strip on
him. Meanwhile, I didn't see him until he lit up over the VOR, just as
he called in (which means he was either vectored or did the PT
inbound). At that point I would guess he was over 180Knots because the
closing rate was rather rapid.

To be fair, I have been IFR in the clouds and told to expect visual 27
(at HGR). I have dropped out of the clouds, 5 miles out looking down
RWY 9 before being handed off to HGR tower.

Today I fly a PA28-180, back then I was flying either a C150/2.
