COPPERSTATE 2007 Departure Procedures

 

NOTE: Airspace within 5 miles of CGZ will be controlled by a temporary FAA control tower. Check NOTAMS before you depart & listen to ATIS on 132.7 before you enter CGZ airspace. This page of information is an excerpt. Click here to see the entire Official FAA NOTAM for the event and for graphics.

 

Departure Procedures

1. To ensure the safety of spectators, all aircraft taxiing in the aircraft parking areas must be accompanied by at least one “wingwalker” to ensure that the propeller area remains clear during engine start and taxi. Do not start engines without first enlisting the aid of a fellow pilot, COPPERSTATE volunteer, Civil Air Patrol cadet, or other qualified person to perform this function. The wingwalker must accompany the aircraft until you have taxied clear of all areas where spectators are present.

2. Obtain departure information via ATIS on 132.7.

3. Taxi up to, but hold short of, the parallel taxiway. CONTACT COPPERSTATE Ground Control on 121.05, in sequence, for taxi instructions.

4. Change to and MONITOR COPPERSTATE Tower on 119.8 when signs or flagmen indicate you should do so-- and in no case later than when you are number three for takeoff. Tower will assume you are ready for takeoff upon your arrival at the end of the runway.

5. After departure, fly runway heading for at least 5 miles, unless otherwise advised by the tower. At five miles, turn on course and frequency change is approved. Avoid the flow of arrival traffic from points west or north of Casa Grande Airport, and do not enter the Phoenix Class B airspace unless you have received a clearance to do so from Phoenix Approach Control.
