I trained a couple of pilots who were deaf and they often went into
controlled airports. It was done via flight plans in which the
destination airport was advised NO RADIO and the pilots look for light
signals on arrival downwind.


Where was this? In the US VFR flight plans are not sent to ATC facilities.

Are you now splitting hairs? I thought the whole idea of the original
post was how does a deaf pilot get along with no radio communication.
In the overall scheme of things, isn't FSS, Tower Apch/Dep control,
Center, all on the radio part of ATC? Go ahead and split hairs. What
is air traffic control if it isn't control of aircraft in the air? I'm
impressed by your posts and challenges but are they very useful?
Geeeeezzzoooooh
