This story on non-towered airports comes from Jetwhine, a blog that began in 2006 as my experiment into what was then a new world of self-publishing. In the 12 years since, Jetwhine has never failed to regularly publish a story about some aspect of the aviation industry that wasn’t available anywhere else. Few other blogs have withstood this test of time.
Non-Tower Advisory Circular Makes a Perfect Spring Tune-up
Key Takeaways:
- The FAA's new Advisory Circular 90-66B, "Non-Towered Flight Operations," is highly recommended reading for all pilots.
- This AC is crucial because the vast majority of U.S. airports are non-towered, or operate as such outside of tower hours.
- It provides concise and clear guidance on operational and communication aspects, including complex scenarios involving various aircraft types and combined aviation activities at non-towered airports.
