Pilot’s Guide

Although several sources of information exist that apply to the “Rules of the Road” or commonly used procedures to ensure orderly traffic flow at non-towered airports, the Montgomery County Revenue Authority (MCRA), along with the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association (AOPA), local flight instructors and others, have contributed information contained in this brochure that is to be considered as “local” procedures that apply to pilots flying in and out of Montgomery County Airpark (GAI).

This publication is not intended to substitute for official FAA recommended procedures at non-towered airports in terms of basic right-of-way rules and traffic flow. Rather, its purpose is to show pilots flying to and from GAI the generally expected methods of pattern entry and exit along with typical altitudes and communication frequencies. By practicing the procedures as illustrated, a safer flying environment along with reduced noise disturbances to our neighbors on the ground should result.
