Laugh Okay. Considering who developed this procedure, what you're writing
doesn't surprise me.
But I suspect that it does help, in that it would be the odd IFR pilot who
could depart w/o a squawk. If the tower cleared me for t/o w/o giving me a
squawk, I'd ask. This forces the particular operator to know that it's an
IFR departure.
No?
