All stands are taxi-out. No pushback required.

### IFR clearance

Initial contact is with Tower. As Bornholm is surrounded by Swedish Airspace, the clearance comes via Sweden. Therefore you can expect some delay in your clearance, and quite often you will get start-up and taxi before the clearance is obtained.

<p class="callout info">Remember to state if you require the latest MET-Report.</p>
