Craft is not exactly correct since I got the transponder code first. It was a monkey wrench that I didn't really expect since I normally get clearance on the ground in CRAFT order. It's been quite a while since I opened a plan in the air and 3 months since I've flown at all. A lot of rust to work off. I think you didn't get the information in CRAFT order because you were not being issued a clearance, just a VFR squawk. |

On any given transmission, any or all of the elements are optional, but the ones that are given will be in the right order. In this case, the only one included was the T, and it was in the right order :-) If you listen closely, you'll notice the pattern on every controller transmission, even for trivial things: "left on charlie, ground point eight" (route, frequency) "cleared for takeoff, fly runway heading" (clearance limit, route) "make a left downwind for 34, contact tower 118.57" (route, frequency) The one exception I can think of is "Squawk VFR, frequency change approved". |

The squawk was an IFR squawk. There's a difference. A VFR one won't
give controllers a low altitude alert, an IFR squawk will. Dave Butler wrote: Wizard of Draws wrote: Craft is not exactly correct since I got the transponder code first.

On a takeoff clearance the last thing that should be said is cleared for
takeoff. Roy Smith wrote: Dave Butler wrote: I think you didn't get the information in CRAFT order because you were not being issued a clearance, just a VFR squawk.

By VFR squawk do you mean just 1200, or do you mean any of a set of codes which ATC tags as not an IFR aircraft? Jose -- Nothing is more powerful than a commercial interest. for Email, make the obvious change in the address. |

Dave Though, I can't answer your question in regards to the post, I know that at JAN, if I request local VFR, they will ask me to squawk 0101 through 0150. If I ask for a local IFR clearance, they will have me squawk 0151 through 0199. Maybe the same works for cross country trips, e.g last two digits for VFR ends between certain numbers??? Allen |

You might squawk 0177, but never 0199.
