[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm hoping someone who is knowledgable about aviation can answer this, but why did the helicopter pilot ask for visual clearance? In the audio you can hear the pilot asking for permission for visual clearance which was approved by the ATC, but why? What would it be beneficial to the pilot?[/quote] It’s standard. It’s nothing out of the ordinary. ATC just must approve. https://www.reddit.com/r/ATC/s/f55jNolBC4 [/quote] I also have a question for someone knowledgeable about aviation. A PP said that the pilot wouldn’t know if they were flying 150 ft above maximum elevation. If I’m flying in a relatively flat area with a maximum elevation is there no way to receive some kind of warning signal if the elevation is passed? [/quote] This. Do the people in the helicopter have no way to determine their altitude? Seems far-fetched.[/quote]
