Airborne pickup of a filed IFR clearance.
Asked by: snu164 875 views General Aviation, Instrument Rating
Scenario: I want to depart VFR and arrive IFR while expecting a flight in VMC. The airport I’m arriving has some unique terrain and Class B issues that make the IFR arrival beneficial. I am IFR rated, equipped, and current.
If I file online from a VOR on the route, how do I know the frequency for pickup? Should I make my call at the VOR? Or a few minutes before arriving at it?
