FISO / A/G operator nomenclature
I must agree with FINALSs19 if the phraseoloy for FISO was changed to "advise final" "advise downwind" it would be a constant reminder to pilots that they were receiving a FISO service. That having been said CAP413 phraseology for Helicopters requires ATCO's phraseology for Heli's not landing on a licenced part of the aerodrome to be given "Land at your discretion" so perhaps from a pilots point of view it can all be a bit confusing. A/G operators are instructed not to use "Land at your discretion" as that is FISO talk. Discuss is it really that confusing ?
