what is the correct format to give time format in radio calls ? (position reports)
hour minutes
or
minutes only
Most people practice minutes on VHF and hours minutes format on HF, however occasionally I see and I am told otherwise.
Any references please.
I am aware that the Jeppesen's say hours and minutes only when making a special air (met) airport but it seems to be common practice that all HF reports are hours and minutes but I cannot find any reference to this.
