Don't you just hate the way things sneak in to the documents?
Can someone point me to the AIP ref (or JEPPS AU section) about now having to report vacated levels on ATC frequency transfer?
I got asked about it today and I have no idea what it is about (or why it has been introduced).
It does explain why I keep getting told vacated levels all of a sudden when I didn't really need to know - at least I didn't think I did.....
Apparently it could be so I don't get confused - newsflash - it
didn't work.
EDIT: I found it: AIP ENR 10.3.6 . But I still don't get why!?
The question I actually got asked is: What is the last vacated level? (i.e. - is it the vacated assigned level or the actual level passing on descent). My common sense would say the only useful information to me is the level you are zooming through now. But hey, I don't get it in the first place so who asked me?!
[I admit this may be useful in a non-radar environment]
