Tower to tower

Actually it does, you call clearance/ground control and ask
for "IFR to "nearby place" and they come back with "ATC
clears Nxxxx to nearby place via ______ ________ maintain
4,000, squawk 2456."

They don't ask fuel, SOB or even alternate.

Actually, since Tower Enroute Control by definition is within approach
control airspace and that "nearby place" need not be within approach control
airspace, it doesn't.

By the way, "ATC clears" is used when a clearance is relayed to an aircraft
through a non-ATC facility. Control towers are ATC facilities.

SVFR does not allow flight into IMC , just VFR as though the
Class B-E was G airspace. SVFR would interfere with IFR and
is only allowed when there is no IFR traffic conflict.


SVFR operations are not prohibited when IFR aircraft are present. If the
SVFR and IFR aircraft can be provided with approved separation and if
arriving and departing IFR aircraft are not delayed then SVFR operations may
be conducted.

see the word "conflict" in the dictionary.
