NOTE: If a delay in departure (or cancellation) of an uncontrolled<br />

VFR flight is not properly reported, alerting or search and rescue<br />

action may be unnecessarily initiated when the flight fails to arrive<br />

at the destination airport within 30 minutes after its current<br />

estimated time of arrival.<br />

a. Whenever a flight, for which a flight plan has been<br />

submitted, is cancelled, the appropriate ATS unit shall be informed<br />

immediately.<br />

b. Changes to a current flight plan for a controlled flight<br />

during flight shall be reported or requested, subject to the<br />

provisions in ICAO Annex 2, 3.6.2. (Adherence to flight plan).<br />

Significant changes to a flight plan for an uncontrolled VFR flight<br />

include change in endurance or in the total number of persons on<br />

board and changes in time estimates of 30 minutes or more.<br />

8. A report of arrival shall be made at the earliest possible<br />

moment after landing to the airport office of the arrival airport by<br />

any flight for which a flight plan has been submitted except when<br />

the arrival has been acknowledged by the local ATS unit. After<br />

landing at an airport which is not the destination airport<br />

(diversionary landing), the local ATS unit shall be specifically<br />

informed accordingly. In the absence of a local ATS unit at the<br />

airport of diversionary landing, the pilot is responsible for passing<br />

the arrival report to the destination airport.<br />

a. Arrival reports shall contain the following elements of<br />

information:<br />

(1) Aircraft identification<br />

(2) Departure airport<br />

(3) Destination airport<br />

(4) Time of arrival<br />

b. In the case of diversion, insert the “arrival airport”<br />

between “destination airport” and “time of arrival.”<br />
