Cleared for the ILS 16 or circle to land 34 question?
On Fri, 22 Dec 2006 15:26:46 -0800, Sam Spade wrote
(in article ): Or you could have circled-to-land following the normal VFR pattern for the airport since the weather was VFR. Circle-to-land needs to be modified to conform to local traffic expectations when the weather is good. Why? Most towers expect you to circle at the circling minima. They will tell you if they want you to do something else. OTOH, if you are going to break off the instrument approach in order to accommodate the unfounded expectations of VFR traffic, you should probably cancel IFR considerably before you enter the pattern for either runway, remembering that once you do that you have to follow cloud clearance rules. |
