"Mark Hansen" wrote in message ... So you dodged my question. I'll assume that means that you realized you were wrong ;-) I didn't dodge your question, I thought the distinction you were seeking was in what ATC facility to call. I never said it applies only if the pilot intends to land at the Class D airport. I'll try to lay it out for you. Allen said: Just like Mark said, pilot is in communication with ATC. I have been in HKS airspace many a times without talking to tower while manuevering around downtown Jackson at 2000 feet. I have always been in contact with JAN during these times and never switched over to HKS. to which you said: We're not talking about those kinds of flights. We're talking about a flight that intends to land at a towered field at the center of Class D airspace Doesn't that mean that you believe flights intending to land at the Class D airport must be in communication with the tower before entering the Class D airspace, while through-flights do not? Otherwise, what did you mean by "We're not talking about those kinds of flights..."? And why do you think the approach controller handing the area does not meet this regulation? Because approach control has no authority over VFR operations in Class D airspace. What does VFR operations have to do with it? This is not a distinction made by the regulations (if I'm wrong, please cite the reg). -- Mark Hansen, PP-ASEL, Instrument Airplane Cal Aggie Flying Farmers Sacramento, CA |
