Getting an Airways clearance
I have an American Instrument rating and i've had trouble getting Airways joining clearances.
Before going in the Airway I used to speak to Lyneham RAF and get a clearance from London via them and then instructed, with a squawk and intial level, to call London shortly afterwards.
Sometimes they don't arrange the clearance and one day told me to FREECALL London Airways straight off. London airways told me I was on the wrong freqency and to go to Lon. Info 124.75 and they told me to go back to Lyneham!! I am really finding it very confusing, not to mention concentrating on flying the plane in pea soup!
