Non-towered airport: self-announce on the CTAF
Sample calls at PANN
Nenana Municipal has no operating control tower. Every call below goes out on the CTAF, 122.1, to the other aircraft, not to a controller. The runway shown is 04L, which has a right-hand pattern; use whichever runway the wind and the traffic dictate on the day.
The aircraft is the AIM’s own example, Cessna Three One Six Zero Foxtrot; the squawk codes, altitudes and headings are illustrative. Frequencies, station names and runway numbers are this airport’s, from the FAA data.
- Tune 122.1. Nobody clears you; you announce and you listen. The airport name goes at the start and the end of every call, and the runway is always a number, never "the active" (AIM 4-1-9 g 8).

If things change. Want flight following after departure? Call Fairbanks Approach on 125.35 once clear of the pattern: identification, type, position, altitude, destination, "request VFR flight following" (AIM 4-1-18 a 3). Do not use "any traffic in the area, please advise"; the AIM says it is not to be used under any condition (AIM 4-1-9 g 1).
