That may make my comments irrelevant. I didn't fly into OSH
airspace. I canceled IFR about 20 (30? pretty sure it was 20) miles
out with MSN approach then did the RIPON arrival. Closest I talked to
OSH was MSN approach.
If there was anything sort of "rule" like that it was an internal MKE rule.
I'm a controller at GRB, I denied advisories to a few aircraft but they were
all well within MKE approach airspace and were never going to be in mine. *I
just told them who they could call and about where they should call once
leaving MKE approach airspace.
Good to know. Like I said it was just something I was "picking up"
from controllers inflections to the numerous requests they were
getting. Sort of a "sigh... unable vfr advisories this time" with no
further information for the pilots.
I did hear one "fast mover" (turbine? turboprop?) with what sounded
like a professional crew get advisories. The controller seemed
surprised they weren't on an IFR flight plan. Missed the type though.
