Saturday, May 21, 2022, starting at 10:00 Arizona Download Calendar File
Speaker(s):
Jura Mohair, Joseph Husband, Craig Tompkins
Brief Description:

If you have questions about why the controllers take the actions they do, this is your opportunity to learn why.  Conversely, this is your opportunity to let the controllers know what you and your aircraft are capable of when flying in the pattern or Luke AFB's airspace.  Glendale is becoming a very busy location for student training in both light-sport and traditional training aircraft and it is seeing an increase level of business jet traffic.  The controllers must balance all this in time critical situations.   The airport manager will also be available to discuss plans for the airport and general operations philosophy.  You can expect the event to last about two hours.

West-Mec is located at the entrance to Glendale Airport.  From the West Loop 101, Exit 7, and take the Glendale Blvd exit and head west for 1.4 miles to Glen Harbor Blvd.  Turn south on Glen Harbor Blvd and take the first available left into the parking lot.  Enter and stay in the parking lot and follow it north into the West-Mec Facility.  You may park in any available spot.  The event is in the Main Building with the entrance facing the northwest corner of the building.  Enter the doors and proceed immediately to the right up the stairs to the meeting room.  The room will will be on the left.

If flying in to attend the event, there is no airport access to the West-Mec campus.  You will need to park either in front of the terminal for free, exit through the building, and walk north about 1/4 of mile to the venue.  Or, you may also contact Glendale Aero Services for parking availability and a possible ride to the campus, but from Glendale Aero it is a shorter walk.
