"Steven P. McNicoll" wrote in message ink.net... That's not true. You can have multiple aircraft cleared for approach at airports not served by radar, you just have to provide separation. Radar isn't the only way to separate traffic. You can have multiple aircraft cleared for visual approaches at non-towered fields. I suppose this depends where one flies -- perhaps controller preference or local letters of agreement have an effect? I know at the unontrolled airports where I fly, I have never been able to get even a visual approach clearance when another airplane is on approach under IFR. -- Richard Kaplan, CFII www.flyimc.com

And subject to local letters of agreement, individual Center policies, etc. For example, several times I have requested a VFR-On-Top altitude assignment in the New York area and I have been told flat out by the controllers that their policies do not permit them to issue such clearances. Similarly, there are areas of the country where as Visual Climb to a new IFR altitude can be a very useful tool, yet in other areas of the country I have again been told flat out that they never issue such clearances. -- Richard Kaplan, CFII www.flyimc.com
