I was at Dublin earlier and I got clearance from tower to line up and then shortly after I was cleared for takeoff and right as I began going down the runway I got a level 3 violation from the ground controller for going on the runway without permission. I’m not really sure why because I was at the runway they told me to go to and tower had cleared me for takeoff. It’s kinda weird so can someone help me fix this please cuz now I can’t use expert for 7 days. (I have screenshots and the playback of it)
There may be something you did wrong or they may have made a mistake.
Please contact your controller (which you can find in your logbook) first about the violation (Their IFC username will be their IF Name), and add @appeals to the message if needed.
Edit: If you need any more help about contacting the right people, @JulianB attached a great guide made by @Drummer about appealing violations. You can check it out!
send this to the @appels
Hi there, please send a PM to your controller or @appeals. For more on how to find the controller in question please see the post below, thanks!
Hey!
You could check out this topic here which will walk you through appealing your violation, and see if your violation has a chance of getting reversed:
I think you can contact your controller
PM The controller by finding him/her 1st, like the Tutorial above. Sometimes the coordination fails
As noted please reach out to appeals anytime you wish to have a violation looked at
