Thanks for the comments everyone, really appreciate your input.
I get the feeling that conditional clearances have been deemed "unsafe" by the powers that be, and unless there is a body of evidence to the contrary then we will no longer be able to use them...at Glasgow. And yet a pilot flying from Glasgow to a.n.other airfield with NATS ATC
CAN be issued with a conditional clearance whilst he's there! So are they safe or unsafe....accountabilities anyone??! Obviously I'm at too low a pay grade to understand
dhc83driver - thank you so much for responding. Think that a lot of the pilots flying out of Glasgow
aren't aware of the trial, which probably means that they won't comment on it!
Are conditional clearances inherently unsafe? Is NOT issuing a conditional clearance any safer?? How do you prove a (double) negative?
Seems like we're dumbing down rather than educating, but I am willing to be proved wrong....anyone, please???
