Default Tower to tower

("keepitrunning" wrote)
A friend of mine who is IFR rated said there used to be a term called
tower to tower to allow for an IFR clearance from one towered airport to
another. This type of clearance wasn't as complicated as a full blown
clearance. He thought that the name had been changed or that it was now
called something else. I googled some but could not find any reference
and not being IFR myself have no clue.



Not IFR but how about ...Special VFR Clearance?

When normal VFR flight wouldn't be advised, a tower can give you Special VFR
Clearance to get over to another field, next door. That's how it was
explained to me.

Is this what you're thinking about?
