This was a VFR flight prior to the first call, quoted above?


Yes, a VFR flight not receiving any ATC services at the time of the call.



(I assume yes). In that case, I guess clearances can precede flight plan
info.

Is Clintonville an IAP or transition for the Green Bay airport? (I assume
so, in which case I'd ask the more limited question of whether clearance
is issued before flight plan info is received, if one is not "inside an
approach plate".


Clintonville Municipal Airport is about 27 miles WNW of GRB, Clintonville
NDB is on the field.
