Narrative:

My student and myself were flying from mlb to orl on the first leg of our 3 hour x-country. We contacted (I contacted) mco approach approximately 20 mi from mco, and told the controller we wanted a touch and go at orl and then we were going to proceed to ocf. We were vectored to the airport (orl). We were handed off to orl tower, and my student, who I thought could use the practice talking on the radio, called tower and said we were inbound. I figured that the approach controller would let the tower know our situation (touch and go and proceed to ocf). I must have not been listening very well when he cleared us to land as I was busy instructing my student. We proceeded to do a touch and go instead of landing. The controller then called and asked what we were doing and I then explained to him we were on our way to ocf. I thought that this should be known and maybe we can in the future, have approach controllers advise towers of our intentions, at least basic intentions. I know that this is a busy airport/arsa and I would hope that this doesn't happen often but when you have a beginning student landing at a busy airport you have got to be very careful about what he does. That is why I think the situation slipped by me.

Title: AFTER INSTRUCTOR AND STUDENT PLT HAD INFORMED MCO APCH THAT THEY DESIRED A TOUCH AND GO AT ORL, THE TWR CLEARED THEM TO LAND. NEITHER INSTRUCTOR OR STUDENT CAUGHT THE DISCREPANCY AND THEY MADE A TOUCH AND GO.

Narrative: MY STUDENT AND MYSELF WERE FLYING FROM MLB TO ORL ON THE FIRST LEG OF OUR 3 HR X-COUNTRY. WE CONTACTED (I CONTACTED) MCO APCH APPROX 20 MI FROM MCO, AND TOLD THE CTLR WE WANTED A TOUCH AND GO AT ORL AND THEN WE WERE GOING TO PROCEED TO OCF. WE WERE VECTORED TO THE ARPT (ORL). WE WERE HANDED OFF TO ORL TWR, AND MY STUDENT, WHO I THOUGHT COULD USE THE PRACTICE TALKING ON THE RADIO, CALLED TWR AND SAID WE WERE INBND. I FIGURED THAT THE APCH CTLR WOULD LET THE TWR KNOW OUR SITUATION (TOUCH AND GO AND PROCEED TO OCF). I MUST HAVE NOT BEEN LISTENING VERY WELL WHEN HE CLRED US TO LAND AS I WAS BUSY INSTRUCTING MY STUDENT. WE PROCEEDED TO DO A TOUCH AND GO INSTEAD OF LNDG. THE CTLR THEN CALLED AND ASKED WHAT WE WERE DOING AND I THEN EXPLAINED TO HIM WE WERE ON OUR WAY TO OCF. I THOUGHT THAT THIS SHOULD BE KNOWN AND MAYBE WE CAN IN THE FUTURE, HAVE APCH CTLRS ADVISE TWRS OF OUR INTENTIONS, AT LEAST BASIC INTENTIONS. I KNOW THAT THIS IS A BUSY ARPT/ARSA AND I WOULD HOPE THAT THIS DOESN'T HAPPEN OFTEN BUT WHEN YOU HAVE A BEGINNING STUDENT LNDG AT A BUSY ARPT YOU HAVE GOT TO BE VERY CAREFUL ABOUT WHAT HE DOES. THAT IS WHY I THINK THE SITUATION SLIPPED BY ME.
