The other thing, I think, is that under the circumstances we are
discussing, the pilot is cleared for a particular instrument approach.

Since he has not been "otherwise authorized", presumably he would be
in violation for deviating from an IFR clearance, if he just went off
and flew his own home-made procedure.

We were talking about cancelling the IFR clearance and proceeding VFR when
you piped up with this "you've got to fly the instrument procedure"
business. He's not flying a "home-made procedure", he's proceeding VFR.

Alright. Talk. Don't make me reach over there and pull your still-pumping
heart out from the gaping hole you used to call a chest whilst breaking
your sternum and playing air guitar with your ribcage. -- Tai
