FAA AIM — Section 4. ATC Clearances and Aircraft Separation
An ATC (Air Traffic Control) clearance provides a pilot with authorization to proceed under specific conditions in controlled airspace. It does not grant priority over all other traffic or ensure adequate separation from all traffic; these are managed by ATC. The clearance is designed to integrate the aircraft into the overall traffic flow safely and efficiently.
