So, you are saying I need a clearance to land when NORDO and proceeding
under the provisions of 91.185?
Correct. I am sure you know clearance for an approach is NOT a
clearance to land. I don't see anything in the above that says I am
allowed to land (hence the light signals).
No light signals, no clearance to land. I better be squawking 7700 if
I plan to land without a LANDING clearance. The above pertains to
enroute and approach clearances.
I beg to differ with you. When operating under 91.185 you don't have an
approach clearance any more than you have a landing clearance.
Lets go this route. The system has built in a communication way for
getting a clearance to land via light gun?
What makes you think that 91.185 would trump the clearance to land
procedures?
I realize this is more theoretical talk as in the real world, ATC will
move traffic to get us in safely and it's a matter of "semantics" but
in the theory world, what you gave as reference pertains to enroute
operations (center and approaches), not tower operations (landing)
I hit send too fast! Landing is a VFR operation, not a IFR
operation. You would be visual from DH to wheels down so I really
don't think 91.185 applies.
If landing is a VFR operation than I can't land out of an IAP when the
weather is less than VFR (1,000 and 3 at an airport with an operating ATCT)
