    MINS BEFORE OEP/ENTRY
    RCL (Posn, Time, Level, Speed) .......................... SENT DON'T
    ACK ("RCL Received by Gander") ............ RECEIVED
    AS REPORTED BY GANDER OCEANIC, DECEMBER 2024
    DO
    WRONG RCL TIME. Send it when you are 90-60 mins from
    THIS!
    (IF RCL SENT ON TIME, NO FURTHER ACTION REQUIRED)
    your entry point. Not before, not after. The 1 hour cutoff is strict.

    WITH GANDER DOMESTIC


    ASKING FOR AN OCEANIC CLEARANCE. They are gone,
    OCEANIC CLEARANCE ........... NONE (REMOVED) finished, done. (for NAT eastbound). ATC can't give you one, so don't ask!
    IF "RCL REJECTED" ................ READ RCL TO ATC
    LEVEL CHANGE ........................ AWAIT FROM ATC CLIMBING WITHOUT APPROVAL. (Or descending). Too many are getting this
    (NEVER GO TO YOUR RCL LEVEL WITHOUT CLEARANCE) wrong. ATC will ensure you are at the right level at the OEP. Don't "do it yourself".

    AT OCEANIC ENTRY POINT WRONG HANDLING OF "RCL REJECTED". You'll get this if you send your RCL early
    or late. If late, just tell ATC on the current frequency what your RCL says. Then you're done.
    FLIGHT LEVEL ..................................... AS CLEARED You won't be handled any differently. No "Oceanic Clearance".
    SPEED ................. SET (RCL or ASSIGNED MACH)
    ROUTE .............. AS PER FPL OR RE-CLEARANCE ASKING FOR ROUTE CONFIRMATION. Don't do it, it blocks the frequency
    and increases ATC workload. ATC auto-queries your FMS to ensure it's correct.

    SPEED, AND LEVEL, AND WILL ADVISE OF ANY DISCREPANCY

    The RCL is a one-and-done message with your At the Oceanic Entry Point, maintain whatever
    desired level and speed. You won't get a level Domestic ATC has assigned - this is your
    clearance, so don't ask for one! Send your RCL at ocean level. Set speed to Econ/Cost Index, or a

    have to use voice (e.g late, or no ACARS) - just automatically queried with a "Confirm Assigned
    read out the RCL with current ATC, and you're done. Route" message - no need to confirm via voice.

    Domestic ATC (the radar sector before the ocean) Once in the ocean and traffic permits, you can

    ATC has assigned you. IF your RCL level is if you didn't get it earlier. If you have an Assigned
    available, they will clear you. Don't just climb Mach, when able, ATC will issue "Resume Normal
    yourself. Nil comms means no change, stay where Speed". This means fly RCL speed (Cost Index),
    you are. and notify of +/- 0.02 changes to this speed.
