Radar environment
NOTE: Radar has greatly reduced the requirement for pilot-to-
controller communications. The one item that the controller must
confirm to ensure proper spacing for traffic is that the transponder is
transmitting an accurate altitude. On all initial contacts with ATC
under radar conditions, the initial contact call from the pilot shall
include “altitude” along with ID.
