How must a change to an issued track warrant be made?

• A. Amend the existing warrant
• B. Issue a new track warrant voiding the old one
• C. Change the OK time
• D. Notify the crew by radio

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is that a track warrant is the formal authority for movements, and any change to its terms must be documented by issuing a new track warrant that voids the old one. This keeps all involved parties on the same page with a single, current document that clearly states the updated authority, limits, and conditions. Amending the existing warrant or changing only the OK time doesn’t remove the old terms or fully convey the updated authority, which can lead to confusion or unsafe assumptions. Relying on radio notification alone also doesn’t replace the formal instrument. Issuing a new track warrant that voids the old one ensures a clear, official record of the updated permissions and prevents topics from being interpreted under outdated conditions.
