An aircraft is departing from an uncontrolled aerodrome. When should the pilot transmit the actual take-off to the ATC?

  • A

    Upon request from ATC.

  • B

    When landing is assured.

  • C

    Immediately after take-off.

  • D

    At deviation from expected off-block time by more than 15 min.

Uncontrolled aerodrome. An aerodrome without a control tower, or one where the tower is not in operation.

For flights departing from an uncontrolled aerodrome, the procedures for transmitting the actual take-off time to Air Traffic Control (ATC) are critical for maintaining efficient and safe air traffic management. The transmission of the actual take-off time is typically standardized to ensure timely and accurate communication.

Transmitting the actual take-off time immediately after take-off ensures that ATC has the most up-to-date information on the flight's progress to update the flight's status, track the aircraft accurately, and provide necessary traffic information and control services.
