Say you are approaching the Grand Prairie Municipal Airport from the south in a Cessna 12345 and want to make a full stop landing. You check the weather, get information Charlie, and then tune up tower frequency. Pilots should also take full advantage of free reference materials like the FAA’s Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM).

The FAA’s Aeronautical Information Manual (AIM) is a fantastic resource. Cleared for the option – authorization to make a touch-and-go, low approach, missed approach, stop-and-go, or full-stop landing. Practice requesting and receiving clearances. First, be mentally prepared for the clearance.

The tricky part is that you are expected to proceed on course after reaching 5,000′ MSL, so technically, this is sort of your “expect further clearance” information. Santa Monica Municipal (KSMO) has a fix called DARTS, located on V-186, that serves as the intermediate fix for the RNAV 21 and the VOR-A approaches.
