Did they say "practice approach approved, maintain VFR", or did they say "cleared for the approach"? If it's a practice approach in a VFR environment, it's not all that unusual to get altitude restrictions, especially to keep you above the VFR traffic pattern, if they can't work you in. He said the clearance was "Cessna XXX, cross ELESE at 3,000, cleared GPS 15 approach." Since 500 feet vertical separation was used the other aircraft had to be VFR so we can conclude it was a practice approach in a VFR environment. |
