Thepilot-in-commandmust not deviate from the track, level and intentions

stated during the establishment of 2-way communications or the instructions

issuedbyATC (if these instructionsmodify the stated track, level and

intentions), unless authorised byATC.

UnlessATC specifically instructs otherwise, establishment of two-way

communications permits a pilot, intending to land at an aerodromewithin

ClassD airspace, to descend as necessary to join the aerodrome traffic

circuit.

Cancelling IFR toExpediteArrival.

If operating IFR and experiencingdelay in

gaining clearance to enter ClassD airspace fromClassG airspace, a pilot can

choose to cancel IFR (provided theweather conditions permit VFR), and arrive

VFR.

Note: By cancelling IFR, ATCwill not be required toprovide you IFR/IFR

separation; whichmay be the reason for thedelay.

Parallel RunwayOperationsatClassDAerodromes.

Where aClassD

aerodrome is equippedwith parallel runways, ATCmay sequence aircraft

for simultaneous contra-direction circuits andmay conduct these operations

using separate tower frequencies for each runway. Operationswill be

regulated independently in each circuit, with anATC clearance required to

enter the opposite circuit or airspace.
