Splendid DBW, thank you very much for detailed information!
Are ATC understandable to these procedures? How would you go about if you where required to fly away from an aerodrome while maintaining an altitude due traffic or other restrictions, thus lacking the availability to glide safely back?
I have not seen these requirements implemented in national regulations here in Norway, are these precautions required to be followed when operating privately or when training at an FTO?
Required or not, doing so is of course good airmanship and essential for safety.
