Some of you have noted a new procedure for VFR traffic departing HPN.
The tower is requesting that you contact Clearance Delivery prior to
contacting Ground Control.


It was just a matter of time. For years the tower has refused entry
to people calling in unless they go through NY approach despite there
being no references on any charts nor in the AFD that they're other
than a regular Class D airport. This new procedure will just complete
the symmetry of their pretending to be Class C.
