Speed restriction during descent

[Cobra17]

The aeronautical information manual and the regulations should not be forgotten, as these contain the procedures and rules by which this decision must be made.

Chief among them is the regulatory requirement to query ATC for clarification regarding a clearance for which there is any doubt.

You dig out your regulations and the latest copy of FAR/AIM, I will simply ask ATC what he/she wants.

In all seriousness....goto the ATC forum on this sight. I have had alot of questions answered from actual ATC specialists.

You dig out your regulations and the latest copy of FAR/AIM, I will simply ask ATC what he/she wants.

In other words, you will comply with 14 CFR 91.123(a):

§ 91.123 Compliance with ATC clearances and instructions.

(a) When an ATC clearance has been obtained, no pilot in command may deviate from that clearance unless an amended clearance is obtained, an emergency exists, or the deviation is in response to a traffic alert and collision avoidance system resolution advisory. However, except in Class A airspace, a pilot may cancel an IFR flight plan if the operation is being conducted in VFR weather conditions. When a pilot is uncertain of an ATC clearance, that pilot shall immediately request clarification from ATC.

Thanks for playing.

 

[Cobra17]

In other words, I was right.

Again.

 

[avbug]

You were right to reiterate the same comments that myself and others made previously...when in doubt, query ATC.

You were dead wrong, making the foolish comment to disregard the regulation.

 

[Cobra17]

Lighten up Francis.

We both gave the correct answer, the difference is I did it in 15 words or less.

lol...funny

 

[avbug]

Your assertion to disregard the regulation was, and is in error. Perhaps the best one might expect from a mighty mescalaro master.

When you've got your hands full trying to wrestle a 172 back to earth in a 7 knot crosswind, you don't have time to look up FAR/AIM.

 

[avbug]

That explains it, then.
