It is precisely for this reason that when I worked at GFK, home of UND and
the 75 airplane departure rush every couple of hours, that we would not
read you your IFR clearance until you were ready to go.


Great idea. Put the lengthier transmissions on the local control frequency
when 75 airplanes are looking to depart. I'm sure they don't mind waiting
for that IFR departure while he reviews his clearance at the hold short
line.
