-IFR-Openings dienen dazu, von einem unkontrollierten Flugplatz zu starten und ab einer bestimmten Position unter IFR&nbsp;den Flug fortzusetzen. Hier wird bereits ein entsprechender Z-Flugplan bei der zuständigen Flugverkehrskontrollstelle eingereicht und liegt dem Lotsen vor. Der IFR-Pickup ist häufig letztes Mittel für VFR-Flüge um auf Grund von drohenden IMC&nbsp;Conditions doch noch zum gewünschten Ziel zu gelangen.
