Matz Crossings
Go easy on me guys (& girls)..... I "should" know the answer but don't.
I'm a student who normally flies at the weekend when MATZ are shut so I have very little experience of asking for a crossing...
When I ask to get across a stub... Am I asking for a "MATZ penetration" or a "Zone transit"?? Also.. If I want a FIS - do you want that request at the same time as asking to get across... I'll be approx 5 miles away when calling...
Also.... As my home airfield is within a MATZ and circuit departure rules say I have to get to the VRP at circuit height before I climb.... Can I say that I'm at 1100 ft but climbing to 2300ft on QNH XXXX or do I need to stay down??
Also.... Just to make sure I practice this.... I intend to do a NAVEX which will take me through a MATZ ( a different one) rather than just the stub - Is that the same call as the one in my first question??
Hope you can clarify, as I'm flying tomorrow wx permitting.
Thanks
