Guest broke Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Even though I have ( on occasion ) flew staight in , or avoided the fixed wing circuit (500 ft, and right hand) at an airport, and , have talked to T.C. about the unwritten rule of avoiding the fixed wing circuit, which they said was no problem. It has come to my attention that pilots have had enforcements against them for doing so. What do you do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowroller Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 Pretty sure that circuits are 1000 feet AGL for "ALL" aircraft & left hand unless otherwise published in the CFS or cleared by the ATC unit at a given airport at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pc12dude Posted December 29, 2006 Report Share Posted December 29, 2006 I thought this might help. I was going post the whole thing, but its a-little much. A.I.M. 4.3 Traffic Circuits — Controlled Aerodromes NOTES 1: Circuit normally flown at 1 000 feet AAE. 2: Where a right-hand circuit is required in accordance with CAR 602.96, the opposite of this diagram is applicable. A.I.M. 4.5.2 Traffic Circuit Procedures — Uncontrolled Aerodromes NOTES 1: The circuit is normally flown at 1 000 ft AAE. 2: If a right-hand circuit is required in accordance with CAR 602.96, the opposite of this diagram is applicable.
