Yes it really is that simple.
Tell your captain Goggles Pisano said so.
OK Goggles. Maybe I need an example to clarify.
You're at FL300. ATC clears you for the FYTTE 4 RNAV arrival into ORD. "Goggles, you're cleared direct MYRRS, cleared FYTTE 4 RNAV arrival-MYRRS transition, cross FYTTE at 11,000, 250 knots"
They don't say "Descend via".
Are you going to comply with the 3 intermediate restrictions (at BHAWK, CUUPP and CLSBY) between MYRRS and FYTTE or not?
