So many factors to consider. When JAX approach turned Biscayne 293 over to tower he naturally gave them the UHF frequency not the VHF, the pilot has previously stated that they were unable to get the “ATIS” which means they had no communication with NAS JAX to get live or recorded weather or airfield specific information wind speed etc.
It was only on short final to Rwy 10 that they ASKED approach control for the VHF frequency for NAS JAX. Reviewing the RNAV 10 approach clearly there is great cause for concern

First thing that pops out at me for this particular approach is there is no published VHF ATIS that is Critical information that constitutes communication between an airport and arriving and departing aircraft
If Biscayne 293 does not have UHF radios (very few if any civilian planes do not nor are they allowed to because that frequency band is reserved for military aircraft) and there is no VHF alternative the pilot is REQUIRED to make contact with the tower and obtain thar ATIS information to plan for approach and get the most current real time weather and NOTAMS etc.
Since there is no public access to NAS JAX tower there is no publicly available radio traffic recording unless the NTSB chooses to release that recording from the CVR / black box. I for one would be interested in knowing if the pilot was actually cleared to LAND. Being cleared for an approach by ATC does NOT constitute LANDING clearance by an airport TOWER.
