They may not doing it legally. One implies the ability to do so and the other has implicit permission. Let's be precise. The instrument student may file all the flight plans he cares to. He just can't accept a clearance. We may be getting hung up in scemantics here, but: How so? I filed (Instrument training flight) in actual, called on the RCO, or now GCO for the clearance,read back clearance, Accepted vectors and the instructor sat there and watched. Had I screwed up he would have said something. This was the last actual IFR in IMC cross country before the check ride, but as far as the filing and accepting clearances he had me doing that from day one.

As has been discussed in other postings on this thread, the instructor is acting as PIC and accepts the clearance by proxy. |

***** ATC sees the first few characters of the REMARKS, but the string length is limited. I forget how many characters they see. e.g. if I remark "PLA FAY", ATC knows I plan to do practice low approaches at Fayetteville. ***** I don't know offhand the number of characters that are passed to us at center, but it is far more than a few. Some military flight plans have extensive remarks that I imagine can exceed 100 characters. There's not much need to abbreviate if it's only a few words. It can cause confusion if it's not a common abbreviation (even if it is used extensively elsewhere). I remember the first time someone abbreviated "pick up airborne" as PUP AIRBORNE. I asked them if they'd be descending slowly to protect the dog's ears. ;-) Chad Speer PP-ASEL, IA ATCS, Kansas City ARTCC |
