Right, but on one occasion, I remember hearing a controller ask a
pilot if he had the weather and NOTAMS for a particular airport he was
intending to do a practice approach at. The pilot responded that he
had the weather, but not the NOTAMS. The controller made him do a few
holds until he had a chance to bring up the NOTAMS to read to him. The
reason for the NOTAM was the one and only runway was closed. I'm not a
controller, but I'm pretty sure there is a rule that states a plane
can't be cleared for an approach until the controller is sure the
pilot has all the relevant information, including weather and notams.


I am a controller, there is no such rule.


Well then it's an unwritten rule. I've witnesses a bunch of times a
controller refusing to clear a IFR plane further until the pilot has
verified he has weather and NOTAMS.

Probably the same controller each time.
