Make them say how much delay or give an EFC/EAC time

How much delay? The answer is "None." The book says do not specify an EFC
if no delay is expected. If your sense of self-preservation can't live with
that don't fly IFR.


Why don't you recommend that for inclusion in the AIM under "cooperation
and communications between pilots and ATC."
