Non-towered airport: self-announce on the CTAF

Sample calls at T00

Chambers County has no operating control tower. Every call below goes out on the CTAF, 122.9, to the other aircraft, not to a controller. The runway shown is 12; 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.

  1. Tune 122.9. 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).
  2. YouChambers County traffic, Cessna Three One Six Zero Foxtrot, taxiing to runway one two, Chambers County.
  3. YouChambers County traffic, Cessna Six Zero Foxtrot, departing runway one two, departing the pattern to the north, Chambers County.
  4. Announce until you are about 10 miles out; on the way back, start announcing at 10 miles (AIM 4-1-9 c 1, TBL 4-1-1).
  5. YouChambers County traffic, Cessna Three One Six Zero Foxtrot, one zero miles south, two thousand five hundred, landing Chambers County, Chambers County.

If things change. Want flight following after departure? Call Houston Approach on 134.45 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).
