Operational procedures

As the captain, you must of course also inform the passengers about the trip.

The following is for inspiration:

"Welcome aboard the Cessna 172 from EKHG to Endelave. In the seat back in front
of you you will find life jackets. Since the flight will take place at an altitude so that
we have glide height to land, these should not be needed, but otherwise you can see
on the information card how to put on such a life jacket..." etc.

6.4 Airport operations and airport safety

(Operationelle procedurer 2 - 3 videoer)

Everything moves on an aerodrome or airport, so be vigilant!

Many aircraft disasters with loss of life could have been avoided if the pilots and

air traffic controllers had had the right procedures and the right equipment

available.

Ground radars, which report the position and movements of aircraft on the

maneuvering area, can help the air traffic controller in situations where poor

visibility makes it impossible to have a visual overview of the traffic on the
maneuvering area.
