The gist of them is usually something like, "unable 8000 due to icing", "OK, you need to work it out with the departure controller once you're in the air". It's stupid, but at least you need to stick to your guns. I've done it a few times. You take off, and check in with departu "New York, Arrow 3875T, 1200 climbing 3000". "Radar contact, climb maintain 8000". "Unable 8000 due to icing" "Nobody told me that, weren't you cleared to 8000 on the ground?" "Yup, and I said unable, and the ground controller told me to work it out with you" eventually, they find something to do with you, but it sure doesn't seem like the right way to run things. Hm, I think I'd assume that it's not safe or legal for me to take off on a clearance that I know I can't safely or legally fly (even if that's what the ground controller suggests). It's a shame if the system expects us to do that. --Gary |

What was your plan if departure couldn't find something to do with you? Didn't really have one, but so far they've always managed to work something out. I'm not saying this is a good (or particularly smart) thing, but I see it more as a problem for ATC than for me (as long as I don't let them talk me into climbing into the ice). |

Didn't clearance delivery already talk you into climbing into the ice? What's your plan if departure doesn't have an alternative for you? |

N12345: "White Plains departure, unable 8000 due to icing, request 3000 as
final today" WPD: "Negative, climb and maintain 8000" N12345: "N12345 declaring an emergency"....

The FARs prohibit you from flying into icing in an aircraft not certified for icing. By accepting the clearance, you are violating the FARs. Which leads to another question... If ATC issues a clearance which will cause you to violate the FARs, are you legally bound to accept it? |

"EDR" wrote in message ... If ATC issues a clearance which will cause you to violate the FARs, are you legally bound to accept it? No, and that is made known to controllers. FAA Order 7110.65P Air Traffic Control Chapter 2. General Control Section 1. General 2-1-1. ATC SERVICE The primary purpose of the ATC system is to prevent a collision between aircraft operating in the system and to organize and expedite the flow of traffic. In addition to its primary function, the ATC system has the capability to provide (with certain limitations) additional services. The ability to provide additional services is limited by many factors, such as the volume of traffic, frequency congestion, quality of radar, controller workload, higher priority duties, and the pure physical inability to scan and detect those situations that fall in this category. It is recognized that these services cannot be provided in cases in which the provision of services is precluded by the above factors. Consistent with the aforementioned conditions, controllers shall provide additional service procedures to the extent permitted by higher priority duties and other circumstances. The provision of additional services is not optional on the part of the controller, but rather is required when the work situation permits. Provide air traffic control service in accordance with the procedures and minima in this order except when: a. A deviation is necessary to conform with ICAO Documents, National Rules of the Air, or special agreements where the U.S. provides air traffic control service in airspace outside the U.S. and its possessions or: NOTE- Pilots are required to abide by CFRs or other applicable regulations regardless of the application of any procedure or minima in this order. b. Other procedures/minima are prescribed in a letter of agreement, FAA directive, or a military document, or: NOTE- These procedures may include altitude reservations, air refueling, fighter interceptor operations, law enforcement, etc. REFERENCE- FAAO 7110.65, Procedural Letters of Agreement, Para 1-1-8. c. A deviation is necessary to assist an aircraft when an emergency has been declared. REFERENCE- FAAO 7110.65, Safety Alert, Para 2-1-6. FAAO 7110.65, Emergencies, Chapter 10. FAAO 7110.65, Merging Target Procedures, Para 5-1-8. |

But be careful because ATC may have to have you at 8000. So if you are unable you may be parked for a long while. If I'm picking up ice, the laws of physics will take over, and whether or not they "have to have me" at 8000, I won't be there. Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address) |

If ATC issues a clearance which will cause you to violate the FARs, are you legally bound to accept it? No. If you are in the air, you still fly your old clearance while you reject the new one and you and ATC work it out. If you are on the ground however, ATC has no incentive to work it out with you. You end up staying on the ground. Jose -- (for Email, make the obvious changes in my address) |
