If you’re an instrument student or a newly rated IFR pilot and IFR clearances are intimidating, this video will show the basics of an IFR clearance and make them a little bit easier to copy and understand. This video shows how to copy clearances with and without using CRAFT. I recommend NOT using the CRAFT acronym after the format is understood as shown in the video. Clearances are requested from Clearance Delivery, Ground, and (simulated) over the phone at a non-towered airport where a clearance void time would be received.

This video shows the basics of IFR clearances. Current and former Air Traffic Controllers read 5 different IFR clearances ranging from easy to difficult. There are clearances that are cleared as filed, partial full route, full route, and clearances at non-towered airports with a clearance void time. The goal of this video is to explain the basic concepts of an IFR clearance, the differences between types of clearances, and most of all, for instrument students to be able to practice writing IFR clearances read by Air Traffic Controllers.

The same concepts apply to requesting, copying, and reading back an IFR clearance for those using live ATC services on Microsoft Flight Simulator such as VatSim, or Beyond ATC AI software.

Are you about to start instrument training? I used Gleim for the IFR written through ATP and Aircraft Dispatcher and passed on the first try every time. I highly recommend this Instrument Pilot Kit with Test Prep Software by Gleim - https://amzn.to/3CgFi84

If looking for a stand-alone Instrument Oral Exam guide, this one is highly recommended: https://amzn.to/3vw6N9O
