General Operations
- FNT is authorized to conduct local VFR operations at or below 2,500ft within the FNT Class C surface area. Local pattern traffic must not affect the arrival sequence established by approach control.
- Except as required to avoid departures in the coordinated departure area, AZO is authorized to conduct operations at or above 3,000ft in the FNT Class C surface area without coordination.
- AZO authorizes FNT to utilize a certified TDW that may be utilized to provide radar service as deemed necessary IAW FAAO 7110.65 3-1-9.b. Additionally, LC shall issue radar traffic advisories IAW FAAO 7110.65 2-1-21a.
Departures
- Assign an expect further clearance of filed altitude 10 minutes after departure and the following initial altitudes:
- IFR 3,000ft or requested lower altitude
- VFR at or below 3,000ft
- VFR-on-top VFR-on-top, not to exceed 3,000ft
- SVFR at or below 2,500ft
- Coordinate releases for any aircraft that will depart outside of the departure area or on a non-active runway with AZO. All departures, with the exception of SVFR, are served as automatic rolling boundary notification (no release required).
- Assign headings or courses that fall within the departure area for the runway configuration Figure 12-1
- RWY 9 & 18: 060 clockwise to RWY HDG of RY18
- RWY 9 & 36: RWY HDG of RWY 36 clockwise to 120
- RWY 18 & 27: RWY HDG of RWY 18 clockwise to 300
- RWY 27 & 36: 240 clockwise to RWY HDG of RY 36
Arrivals
- Assign missed approach aircraft 3,000ft and a heading in the departure area.
- Inform AZO of an unplanned missed approach prior to the aircraft reaching one (1) NM from the runway departure end.
- Unless only one runway is designated as active, when visual approaches are being conducted, tower must state on the ATIS that approaches are being conducted to multiple runways.
