"Robert M. Gary" wrote in message om... I guess the situations where I've had it come up are when I want to fly the VFR route over LAX and then pick up my IFR at the SMO VOR. When the controllers see SMO as the first fix, they seem to assume I want to pick it up on the ground. Naturally. In every case, approach as refused to issue clearance when in the air. Did they say why?

They said I could land and pick up the clearance on the ground but that they would not issue the clearance in the air. Perhaps this is standard operating procedure for LA Approach? Do some areas just consider themselves too special to have to issue airborne clearances? -Robert

No reason at all why it couldn't be issued in the air.
