Why do helicopters always get a takeoff clearance of "depart at your own risk"?
I've heard the same if an airplane asks for anything out of the ordinary (using grass/taxiway/etc).
I mean aren't we always taking off at our own risk?
What risk is ATC supposedly absorbing otherwise? Can they warp time and space and take my place in a crash?
LOL, ok seriously though, what's the point/purpose of the extra verbiage?
