Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):
Many general aviation pilots would hesitate flying into a Class B airport. Concerns about disrupting the flow of airline traffic, communication difficulties, high landing fees and a sense of being unwelcome are all common assumptions that have kept many GA aircraft away from utilizing large city airports.
This presentation will debunk such common myths about very busy airports, and provide a good framework and understanding for how to plan a flight to a major airport as a private pilot and what to expect when arriving, taxiing, and departing
Acknowledgement to Karen Kalishek for helping to organize the presentation as well as Jeff LaFleur at the Menominee Regional Airport for assisting with logistics and planning.
