Difference of meaning, a term 'by', 'cross'
Thanks for visiting
I want to know the difference of meaning, 'by', 'cross'. For example, "Descend FL100 by Waypoint", "Descend FL100 cross Waypoint at FL100" And want to know the difference of basis. |
Desend by would be used when you are inside controlled airspace, and they want you to be below a certain level by a waypoint, usually because of traffic at a higher level coming the other way.
Cross would be used when crossing an airway or other airspace, and they would usually want to give you a set level for that. Cap 413 chapter 3 for level by which is just general level reporting Cap 413 chapter 7 for cross at which is flights crossing airways |
CAP413 is a UK Doc and not very relevant in South Korea! The ICAO Doc is 9432.
"Descend FL100 by Waypoint" "Descend FL100 cross Waypoint at FL100" |
