As a pilot, I applied a lot of the same ideas brought up in this video (which was a great video). As a controller, I often hear pilots (airline, corporate, military and general aviation) mess up a lot of the fundamentals talked about here. For CRAFT clearance, some food for thought. 1. As brought up, fill out what you already know. You should know the destination airport and usually departure frequencies are listed on approach plates 2. Route - as a controller on clearance delivery, I read the same route 83639738297 times a day so I’m probably going to speed through it (bad habit, btw). This being said, if you file direct to your destination, expect some type of preferred routing. If ATC reads it too fast, do not start the reading back the clearance. Ask for the spelling of the routing (especially if you don’t know it). ATC might get a little short with you, but that’s what we’re paid to do. 3. Read back your clearance with your full call sign. 4. Many times the center computer system (in the US) gives towers the preferred routing. IF you need a particular routing (other than what was read), feel free to ask if you can have your filed route or something. No, chances are you will not get direct chicago/New York/Atlanta/miami. At worse ATC will ever say is no. In approaches controls that have departure gates, departures need to go out departure gates and arrivals need to arrive in arrival gates. 5. Someone posted how they handle clearance void times. However you do it, be sure to comply with the release and void times - especially if it’s a destination that was a call for release/edct time. That gets messy when pilots are late. I’ve actually to hold an airliner in my airspace for 20 mins before the center took the handoff because of the missed time. I know this is long. I thank you for reading. Keep up the great work!
10/10! Jason, in addition to CRAFT, I added on another section for departing an uncontrolled airport RNV (pronounced RNAV) - R (Released for departure at XXX time), N (time Now XXX), V (Void if not off by XXXX time)
10/10. Recently signed up for the online ground school! I used a different service when I did my private pilot written but honestly your private pilot prep audiobook has been so helpful that it convinced me to go with your ground school to continue my learning with MzeroA! Have my private checkride scheduled for the 20th and can’t wait to keep learning!
While instrument training I would tune into ground freq on live atc and practice writing down clearances while at home. When it came time for my first clearance with my instructor he was impressed by how well I could read it back!
Less than 10 hours away from my Private Check Ride. I have been gathering as much information about the Instrument Rating as I can possibly gobble up, ..... and have been all the way through my Private training. Funds are getting VERY tight so, I feel like the more I can be prepared going into Instrument training the better off I will be when I get there. Also, I am hoping it helps to reduce the cost as well. Great video MzeroA Team. Keep 'em coming ..... and THANK YOU
That FightAware trick is pretty cool! I'm staying to study instrument stuff and knew to fill CRAFT as much as possible before but that helps when more!
10 for 10. I haven't had an isue with clearances really; however, once in the air I often miss when ATC gives things like missed approach procedures and have to ask them to repeat.
VFR pilots can use “RAFT” with Flight Following. I always fill “cleared to” and part or all of route, if familiar airport you probably fill Altitude and definitely departure frequency. Squawk (transponder) code is only thing I will have no clue on.
10 4 10 hello Jason, sounds like some great tips for initiating the muscle memory tools. Believe it or not I just actually learned the flight route statement on flight aware only yesterday afternoon when I was tracking some aircraft in northern Ontario. Cool tip✅🛫
I love the use of flight aware to get my route after filing. I fly from a non-tower airport and the first time I activated my IFR route in-flight soon after takeoff, I was given something totally unexpected and different. This video was very helpful.
FlightAware also has a feature called “IFR Route Analyzer” where you enter the departure and destination airports, and it shows you all of the routes that have been cleared along with the cruising altitude range. It will also show the tail numbers of the aircraft that have flown that route.
10 for 10: My mind is blown. I did not know about the route function in flight aware. Technology has certainly allowed for some useful tools in aviation. I will certainly add it to my kit bag for sure.
10 for 10. Reminds me of the days when i took my IFR training. Wished I would of completed it now. Maybe someday I will get the time to pursure that training again.
10/10. Great video Jason. There are some fun advanced tips/videos on ForeFlight's site. Like using SLI/130/15 for the Seal Beach 130 radial 15 miles out from the VOR. You can also put in a latitude and longitude separated by a slash. The along-track offset to set your top-of-descent on the moving map is amazing for situational awareness. All great stuff when you are requesting a pop-up or standard IFR.
That was a very good video! I totally messed up the first clearance but did better on the last two. I learned that I’m out of practice on copying clearances 🤨
10 for 10. Do the Fixes have a separate frequency from the ILS system, or are they just beacons that beep when you are within range? I wish I could afford to become I pilot and Instrument rated, I know I could do it if I had the money. I did an IFR flight from Albuquerque to where I live in the country in the flight gear simulator. I used triangulation with Albuquerque and Socorro VORs to find the private runway. In unfamiliar areas I would use the vor system for navigation even flighting VFR. Also the DME would make life easier. I have gotten better with flying the ILS in the simulator, must easier to stay on ILS at higher and constant speed with a crosswind. Do you have to worry about icing in the winter flying IFR where you fly? Where I live it’s so dry that Icing would probably only when storms come through. Can you get a Deicing system for single engine aircraft?
Nice tip about getting the route in flight aware. Surprised Foreflight doesn’t have that data easily retrievable almost in a prefilled form or scratch pad.
I'm just started my ppl training a few months ago. I'm 10/10 wow this was a great video. Probably my favorite one so far. It makes the task of copying and read back easy and not so intimidating.
awesome video thanks for that. i am a vfr pilot starting in march my ifr one Q you can file a bogus flight plan with no problems or do you have to cancel this filed flight plan after you are done? thanks again for a great video
The tip for using flightaware was cool. I had no idea the info showed up so quickly there. 8:29 "...5133 in the box" and you say good job? I'm surprised that you're encouraging improper radio etiquette.
I'm a total lay person and tried copying all of those and failed miserably. And I have knowledge from sitting in the right seat several times. I'll never be a pilot and always be a passenger. So, please God help these pilots save my ass! If not and we're going down, hit anything hard so I don't have to limp away from the wreck.
Haha me too brother, my handwriting is just horrible, it has been since I learned to write, no matter what I did / do, it’s still sloppy, but you know they say that the high intelligence people often have bad handwriting, so it can’t be all bad right ? ;-,)

Well said, they don’t teach enough of that “ staying ahead of the aircraft” definitely is the difference between a pilot that’s got vs doesn’t.

Hey good luck bro! I’m about to do my first solo.
@@nims2422 congrats man! It’s a blast!
WOW... You took the elephants out... Simple, Clean and Clear...
This is also great to use for copying flight following instructions which happen to be given in the same format
Excellent Lesson Jason. 10 For 10.

Good presentation, Jason. This will help a lot of students prepare better for their first clearance👍🏼
10 out of 10! Working through PP, Instrument rating is next.
Great tips! The use of flight aware was genius.
Glad you enjoyed it!
profesional explanation and complete
Thanks so much!
That FightAware trick is pretty cool! I'm staying to study instrument stuff and knew to fill CRAFT as much as possible before but that helps when more!
10 for 10. IFR clearances always a good review
Hey Jason, I am 10 for 10! 😊
Love the FlightAware tip! Never thought of that. Great resource!
10 for 10. I haven't had an isue with clearances really; however, once in the air I often miss when ATC gives things like missed approach procedures and have to ask them to repeat.
Love this! Just did my first inst xc for my rating and pre filled craft like you taught in an older video. 10/10!
Good job on pumping out a major video series! I'm doing a mock Instrument checkride on friday. All the knowledge matters!! Thanks!
10 for 10...Hoping to do my IFR this year so this helped. Thanks Jason.

Haha when I was doing IFR a year ago, this was helpful but not flying much now. Last month IFR clearance readback was bad.

10 for 10. Havent started IFR yet, but definitely looking forward to your lessons!!!
Never realized the Flight Aware trick. Will be definitely adding that to my preflight
10 4 10- great content. Be Blessed!!!
That was a very good video!
I totally messed up the first clearance but did better on the last two. I learned that I’m out of practice on copying clearances 🤨
10 for 10. liking the variety
10/10! These have been great as I am preparing for my commercial checkride.
On the first clearance in the video, would the route have been entered as such? KOCF VARZE LAL V521 QUNCY KMIA. 10/10 by the way!
10/10. Very neat Flight Aware trick!
10 for 10 I’m a private pilot hope to get into my IFR training in the near future. This is definitely a huge help already

just looked again and foreflight does appear to have scheduled flights in the system. nice ifr tip for beginners for sure
10 by 10. This helped me tremendously . Role playing is a great tool!
I'm just started my ppl training a few months ago. I'm 10/10 wow this was a great video. Probably my favorite one so far. It makes the task of copying and read back easy and not so intimidating.
Most pilots can react to the situations they have been trained for but a good pilot can anticipate and implement a plan for most situations.
10/10...keep'em coming!!
Thanks Jason
That's a great trick! you've done a great job over these ten days ;)))
10/10, good insight for whats to come, Thanks!
Hey Jason, You might want to invest in an Apple pen to make notes easier to read. Just a thought!
awesome video thanks for that. i am a vfr pilot starting in march my ifr one Q you can file a bogus flight plan with no problems or do you have to cancel this filed flight plan after you are done? thanks again for a great video
10/10 I will definitely be looking for routing. Very helpful
I’m loving this !!!!!!!!!
Thanks for this video!
I had to do some catching up but I’m 10/10 now. Love this challenge!
10-4-10 great series
Your the best I wish I could fly but I’m to big for them training planes
10/10...ready to copy!
Very helpful thank you

8:29 "...5133 in the box" and you say good job? I'm surprised that you're encouraging improper radio etiquette.
10 for 10! Great practice session!!
Thanks.
10 done...... catching up :)
0:45 - “On the fly?” No pun intended!
All made sense!
10 for 10 let’s finish this strong
So fab 10/10.
🔥❤️😎👍GREAT VID, thank you. 10-10. 😎
I haven't done an IFR clearance in over a decade. Do pilots not say "clearance on request" anymore?
They do make Readback Correct shirts :)
Do they now! Gonna need some.
Thx
🙌🏻10 for 10 🙌🏻

What is the most difficult Question in aviation
Do you have enough money to fly regularly?...IMHO
I'm a total lay person and tried copying all of those and failed miserably. And I have knowledge from sitting in the right seat several times. I'll never be a pilot and always be a passenger. So, please God help these pilots save my ass! If not and we're going down, hit anything hard so I don't have to limp away from the wreck.
