IFR Example
IFR Flight Example Transcript
- In real life you should file a flight plan before starting an IFR flight
- There is no altitude limit to fly IFR. However, you have to comply with the Flight Level Allocation Scheme of each airway. (FLAS)
- IFR means that you fly and navigate to your destination by means of Navigational aids such as VOR beacons, NDB Beacons and Intersections. Usually they will fly on waypoints and Airways as published on different flight charts. For the routes connecting from the airport to the airways in the sky, please refer to the Standard Instrument Departure Routes (SIDs) and Standard Terminal Arrival Routes (STARs) as you can find on the charts of different airports.
- If your flight commences outside controlled airspace (see airway charts) you do not need clearance to operate, however you must turn to unicom channel 122.8 and make all the blind calls for every movement you have done. Remain outside controlled airspace until you are cleared to enter.
The following is a transcript of an IFR flight, CPA408, from Hong Kong International Airport (VHHH) to Taipei Taoyuan International Airport (RCTP), with full ATC along the way:
The time now is 2245. The departure time is well over the time for noise abatement procedures, hence CPA408 has to use RASSE3A instead of OCEAN2A to avoid overflying Victoria Harbour.
CPA408 is now fully prepared, with flight plan sent as follows:
