 At 0013 the crew contacted SFO Ground Control for taxi clearance and was cleared to runway 28L, surface wind was 210 degrees at 15 knots, gusts to 23 knots, altimeter 29.98.

At 0015, while taxiing to runway 28L, Flight 282 advised SFO Ground Control that because of a heavy load, they would like to proceed out past the Gap Radio Beacon to the Golden Gate Intersection, thence via Victor 150 to Sacramento instead of direct to Sacramento as originally filed. The request was coordinated with Oakland Air Route Traffic Control Center and approval obtained. The crew was then advised that for takeoff on runway 28L, there would be a "heavy" left cross wind from 210 degrees at 18 to 25 knots which they acknowledged.

After switching to clearance delivery frequency, the crew was asked if they would accept a Golden Gate One Departure.

Flight 282 advised, "We'll do a little bit research there, stand by."

The Clearance Delivery Controller then stated: "That's OK, I'll give you the climb out Tiger Niner Fifteen cleared to Kennedy Airport via Victor one fifty Sacramento, Victor six north, flight plan route, maintain one, one thousand, climb out on the San Francisco two eight seven radial for a vector to Victor one, correction, to Golden Gate Intersection to intercept Victor one fifty."

The first officer then read back the clearance as follows: "Roger cleared to JFK Airport via Victor one five zero Sacramento, Victor six north flight planned route, maintain one one zero, climb out on San Francisco two eight seven degree radial for a vector to Golden Gate Intersection to intercept Victor one five zero."

The Clearance Delivery Controller then stated: "Roger, you can disregard the vector, climb outbound San Francisco 287-degree radial to Golden Gate Intersection, then Victor 150, and, depending on your altitude, they probably will give you a vector to intercept (Victor) 150 before you get to Golden Gate."
