**Runway Safety & Pilot Controller Forum at Scottsdale Airport**
Join us for a one hour interactive discussion tailored for all users of the airspace surrounding Scottsdale Airport. Have you ever wondered what controllers really mean when they say “Hold Short” or “Stand By”? Curious about the best practices for navigating the Phoenix VFR corridors or obtaining instrument approaches efficiently? Want to clarify what to do when you're cleared to land but there’s still an aircraft on the runway?
This is a unique opportunity to engage directly with Air Traffic Manager Travis Tisdale from Scottsdale Tower and Scottsdale Airport Operations team to gain valuable insights into air traffic operations and runway safety.
This forum is your chance to ask these questions and more. Designed to foster better communication and understanding between pilots and air traffic controllers, this session aims to enhance safety, reduce common errors, and ensure smooth operations in the Scottsdale airport vicinity.
**Pilots of all experience levels are welcome.** Don’t miss this opportunity to improve your skills, clarify procedures, and connect with your local air traffic team.
