Maverick: "Requesting permission for flyby."


"Cleared for the option"


All right, all right! I hear this all the time (well, I hear it
sometimes) at PSM nearby.

What does "cleared for the option" mean? Is it any whim on the part of
the pilot in the pattern, like a touch&go?

In other words, is it a way of saying "your request is approved"?

(The problem, I suppose, is that with a handheld I didn't hear the
request.)
