Short cuts below MSA.
Ask three trainers and you'll get four answers.
What is the official, rather than company preferred line on this.
For example, on a SID in day VMC "Cleared direct to (end of SID)".
What about in night IMC?
The kneejerk response is "Can't accept it", but we take radar vectors or "Direct to CF" every day, on to the ILS, descending to platform below MSA.
Any thoughts?
