Arrival

Able Departure. From Fish, remain East of twr 438 Field. Call clear at Twr 438 ("South Tower, Factoryhand 123, Tower 438 clear"). At 438, switch to Santa Rosa Crash (BTN 9) and report "inbound from the North". Crash will respond with course in use. Crossing Hwy 90, descend to 700' and execute the landing checklist.

From OLF Harold. Fly over the community of Harold and report "Harold inbound". Maintain 700', 100 KIAS, and execute the landing checklist.

In either case, split the field over the tactics lane, parallel to the course in use. Approach the field to split by flying a path that doesn't overfly the departure corner of the field (Northwest).

Operations

Read the RWOP for all the details. Don't forget the general overview section at the beginning of the chapter on OLFs. This is just a basic overview.

For all OLFs, split at 700' MSL, 70 KIAS. Pattern altitude is 500' AGL. Taxi in cardinal directions or on the paved surfaces. Make a 360 degree clearing turn after manuevers that end in a hover / touchdown. Maintain at least 200' separation (including vertical separation) from other aircraft when airborn. Turns to downwind SHOULD not be made prior to 200' AGL. Switching sides at the field can be done via taxi, or takeoff/resplitting.

Low work is flown in the Southeast corner. Fly normal/steep approaches and sliding landings on the normal side. Autos and high-speed approaches are done to the tactics lane. Boost off is done to the duty runway.

Communications

Mandatory calls made to crash include: Inbound, splitting, departing.

Mandatory calls made to traffic include: re-splitting, wave-off, quick stops, high speed approaches, high speed low level autos, boost off approaches, simulated engine failures on takeoff, simulated stuck pedals, and lifting from CAL zones. Also, call when commencing and concluding TLAs.

Departure Routes

Depart from the Northwest corner. Report departing to Crash, then get ATIS, call skeds, and switch tower. Fly 700' 100KIAS, and execute either a Vertol arrival from Bell or a Hughes arrival from Echo.
