FSS gives releases?????

I was always told FSS passes on FSS clearances and you get a ATC
clearance through FSS.


What's an FSS clearance?

FSSs relay ATC clearances to aircraft and they may very well include a
release window.

Then it's an ATC clearance. FSS do not give clearances or releases.

In fact it's required that FSS says ATC clears you, and gives you the
CRAFT
which may or may not include a void time.


FSSs gives clearances and releases to aircraft that they've obtained from
ATC.

Obtain clearance from ATC + give clearance to aircraft = relayed clearance.
