RT Clarification needed!!!
After establishing contact with ATC, you say something like:
G-xxxx
aircraft type
from/to
position
heading
altitude
>>>VFR/VMC or IFR/IMC<<<
ETA
Request whatever
1) Am I telling the controller I am flying using VFR or IFR rules or am I telling him/her I am flying in visual or not-visual conditions.
2) I understood it to be the conditions so,VMC/IMC, in which case why can't I (or can I) ask for a deconfliction service in VMC and practice my instrument flying without a safety pilot.
Thanks.
