Issue 7—May 2016 ATCT Matters Tim Wollenburg, Air Traffic Control Tower Manager, reminds everyone: "When the tower is closed, you are required to announce your intentions on the CTAF (128.625) not only for landing, takeoff and pattern entry calls, but also when you are taxiing out to the runway. Also, please announce which runway you are taxiing to and also announce runway selection prior to taking the runway for depar- ture". There have been instances where aircraft have not done this at other airports, resulting in some quick maneuvers to avoid one another. This is especially important at this time of the year when we are seeing increased flying before and after the tower is open due to cool weather in the morning and increased daylight. Tim also wanted to feature recent issues of CALLBACK, published by the NASA Aviation Safety Reporting System. March 2016 topic is “Managing Muscle Memory”, while the April 2016 publication discusses how “Safety Depends on Lessons Learned”. http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov/publications/callback/cb_434.html http://asrs.arc.nasa.gov/publications/callback/cb_435.html Business Spotlight—AeroPros Staffing AeroPros Staffing, Inc. 5070 S.
