Tower Tour and Review of Safety Operations at KFCM

Speaker(s):
Rich Wills
Brief Description:

Come join us to meet our friends in the Tower at Flying Cloud. See what they see - watch and learn how they work landing aircraft and ones looking to taxi and depart. See first hand the new dual local controllers. Get your questions answered, and more! This experience is targeted for pilots to learn how the controllers can help you and vice versa. We are doing this as a group event, so you can ask and learn from each other's questions. A supervisor will give us a brief overview and will answer questions. We can also talk to the controllers as their workload permits.

Bring your questions or just join us for a conversation and see the view!

As homework, review the From the Flight Deck video:
