Why look for rules when there is no need for them?
It's an unfortunate habit in this forum that I've commented upon from time to time over the years.
An unfortunate habit not only in this forum, but a more widespread one. Last weekend I was flying to a little uncontrolled airfield in Central Europe and already on approaching heard "clear to taxi", "clear for take off", "request taxi", "ready for departure", "clear for take off" and was wondering whether they raised a CTR without notice. I already read before in the AIP on a strange setting with contact to Info before taxi, but Tower business to this extend, I really did not expect. When I chatted to the Info guy, he told me most of the pilots are now unable to do what they should do without telling them. So, we may need a minimum mandatory brain age for pilots ;-). Is this the future of flying, mandatory verbal remote control?
