    Airports are named by their orientation relative to magnetic north Think of a circle divided into 3600 360 runways Round the heading to the nearest 10 degrees Eliminate the last zero if heading between 010 and 090 runways numbers These will change as magnetic north moves around. ALWAYS check runway numbers with current AFDs.

    Runway Numbers
    These will change as magnetic north moves around. ALWAYS check runway numbers with current AFDs. Be sure to have a plan to align with the correct runway. Do a proper airport entry!

    Runway Markings

    taxiways

    Taxiing at new airports


    Progressive Taxi Use airport diagrams ahead of time to learn the airport layout. Keep your head up and eyes open..Lookout for traffic at all times, this includes lawnmowers, snowplows, motorcycles..

    Airport Beacons
    A small star on the sectional indicates a rotating beacon. Civilian land airports white/green Military Airports - green/white/white Heliports - green/yellow/white Water Airports yellow/white

    Airport Lighting Control


    Airports with operating control towers
    o Tower controller can change the setting

    Non-towered airports
    o Pilot-controlled lighting

    Airport Arrival
    Always over-fly the field to observe winds, traffic, pattern direction, or any problems with the airport. Enter on a 45 angle to the downwind at TPA. Use the CTAF to alert traffic of your position.

    Non-Towered Communications
    CTAF Common Traffic Advisory Frequency Many airports share the same frequency For clarification, always say the name of the airport at the beginning and at the end of each transmission

    Towered Communication
    Outbound
    o o o o Clearance Delivery Ground Control Tower Control Departure Control

    Inbound
    o Approach Control o Tower Control o Ground Control

    Visual Approach Slope Indicators


    Visual reference to establish appropriate glide path on landing. Not on all runways. Do not become dependent.

    2-Bar VASI

    Approach Slope Indicator

    Tri-Color VASI

    Pulsating VASI

    Wake Turbulence AKA Wing Tip Vortices


    Anytime an airplane that is bigger than you, which basically means any airplane, you need to watch out. It can flip a plane over low to the ground making recovery impossible. Stay as far away from big airplanes as you can.
