  • Departure: Power out onto TWY Y, no pushback required.

IFR Clearance

  • If unable to follow FMS/RNAV SID, inform ATC when requesting clearance. Expect to be assigned a SID and to follow special instructions given in the SID charts.

SID Assignment

Unless otherwise instructed, aircraft cleared via SID shall climb to 5000 ft.

Pushback

Pushback is normal procedure for aircraft Code B and larger.

Generally, a push-back direction is included in the clearance, facing north or south.

Use of transponder
