Training Scenario

I agree with what people are saying about legality. 100% legal because it took off legal. The only thing I'd really add is to find my airlines nearest hub and try to figure out the point of no return to the hub.

So, say it's Atlanta. I would not put that as an alternate, but I would try to pick a point (maybe over Orlando) and figure out the burn and relay that to the captain. If they get there and it doesn't look favorable (multiple reports below Cat I) I would give them the option of changing destination to that hub.

No need to advise ATC

Advise crew of new destination, again do not tell atc, when within an hour of landing and current metar or appropriate RVR tindicates at least landing minimums and atc clears you for the approach. Tell dispatch and we will amend release back to original destination.

The reason I put FLL and MIA, they both have a star that starts at acori. Thus the route ito either airport is mot that different

The reason for not advising atc? Once you do they will give you a new route, plus it lights up on Fusion, and other programs.which causes questions.

Your thoughts?

Why would you try to hide the issue? As in dont tell ATC otherwise it changes in fusion. Better to just tell the bridge or higher ups what happened and that you are handling it. Besides i would love to know what the ASAP committee would think when they found you told the crew to not tell ATC.

Military Medical Groups: Hide everything.

Speaking of medical I heard a long defunct airline used to use the MEDEVAC remark in their filing a few times WITHOUT an actual medevac reason (organs,etc), The FAA had a blast when they found out.
