Can you have a level bust in class G
No. I have not had one. I was asked this question and dont know the answer.
Need some expert advice.
If I was under deconfliction on approach to X in class G. And went to say 3000 instead of cleared 4000. Is that a bust.
Been reading cap493. If not a bust. Is it a bust if i enter into an 'agreement'. How do you do this or is it assumed.
Thanks in advance.

No it's not possible to "bust" anything in G-airspace. You mentioned reading back "cleared 3000 ft", which is also an impossibility, since you aren't "cleared" for anything :-)
However the traffic information other aircraft receive about you will not be correct if you tell us the wrong altitude, so you would be assigned some/all "blame" by the AIBN if you were to collide having stated the wrong altitude... But I reckon that wouldn't matter to you since you'd be raving around in another dimension by then

'raving around in another dimension'. Reminds me of my youth.
Anyway, thanks for reply. Sorry, 'cleared' was a slip.
Does this apply to 'agreement'. I'm still a bit still a bit fluffy on that.

Yes you can have a level bust the UK in class G airspace, if you're in receipt of a deconfliction service, and you depart the assigned altitude or level by 300 ft or more. (Probably applies if you're in receipt of a procedural service too, but my non radar brethren will clarify I'm sure)
Also applies if you've accepted a level, or a level band restriction for 'Co ordination purposes' on a traffic or basic service.

Yes it also applies if you are in receipt of a Procedural service. The obvious difference you have, is that the first you know about it is when the aircraft reports reaching,passing or leaving a level.
