Destination: Ottumwa Airport (OTM)
9Federal AviationAdministration
50 miles out, start building situational awareness about
Ottumwa airport.
@50 Miles or
@30 minutes out
Preparing for arrival at Ottumwa
What is situational awareness and how do I
build it?
10Federal AviationAdministration
Building situational awareness - AFSS
Now I’m going to contact FOD FSS for an update on NOTAMS at OTM
11Federal AviationAdministration
Are farmers working fields or are mowing
operations being conducted?
“Personnel and equipment working adjacent to all
surfaces”
FOD AFSS
Building situational awareness - AFSS
12Federal AviationAdministration
Farmers and mowers working adjacent to runways are usually unaware of the potential hazards posed by
landing and departing aircraft. Additionally, pilots are often times unaware of their presence.
13Federal AviationAdministration
Additionally, at non-towered airports be “heads up” for uncontrolled vehicular traffic.
14Federal AviationAdministration
What is the geometry of new
taxiway to Runway 13/31?
“New Taxiway A parallel to Runway 13, 36 feet wide.”

15Federal AviationAdministration
What kind of signs, markings And lighting might I see at
A non-towered airport?
Building situational awareness
16Federal AviationAdministration
“Winds 220 at 4 knots, Visibility 6
Statute Miles”.
I’m Going to Listen to ASOS
for Current Weather
Conditions
Building Situational Awareness - ASOS
17Federal AviationAdministration
I wonder what other traffic is
inbound or outbound?
Building situational awareness - ARTCC
Contact Chicago center on 118.15
and ask for traffic advisories.
18Federal AviationAdministration
Let’s review the AFD airport
diagram & remarks section
Building situational awareness - AFD
19Federal AviationAdministration
Should I expect all operations from
Runway 31?
Building situational awareness - AFD
20Federal AviationAdministration
Is it right or left traffic ?
?

Building situational awareness - AFD
21Federal AviationAdministration
Intersecting runways…hmmm?
I better be “heads up for crossing traffic!
Building situational awareness - AFD
22Federal AviationAdministration
What about head- on traffic?
Building situational awareness - AFD
23Federal AviationAdministration
Some aircraft may be operating with no radio
or not using CTAF?
Building situational awareness - AFD
24Federal AviationAdministration
Are runways used as
taxiways?
Building situational awareness - AFD
25Federal AviationAdministration
Within 5 miles of the
airport
Where do I expect their drop zone?
Building situational awareness - AFD
26Federal AviationAdministration
Do I expect them to be
radio equipped?
Building situational awareness - AFD
27Federal AviationAdministration
Calm winds and crop dusters go hand in hand. It’s a business and they often land on the most convenient runway.
The AFD doesn’t mention crop dusters. Does that mean they don’t work from OTM?
28Federal AviationAdministration
The AFD doesn’t mention student pilot, military or glider operations?
Expect the unexpected!
29Federal AviationAdministration
During calm winds what caution must be exercised during
departure and arrival?
Building situational awareness - AFD
Awareness that simultaneous multiple runway traffic may be
possible and position and intention announcement on
CTAF is critical.
30Federal AviationAdministration
Building situational awareness - CTAF
I’m switching to common traffic
advisory frequency (CTAF) on 123.0 and start LISTENING for
other arrival and departure traffic!
“Radar services terminated, frequency
change approved”.

CTAF and UNICOM – understanding the difference
x
32Federal AviationAdministration
CTAF: used by all aircraft to facilitate cooperation/coordination in their use of the airport. These conversations are generally related to the actual takeoff and or landing of aircraft, but special activities close to the airport such as ballooning, gliding, parachuting or stunt flying will often be accomplished by announcements on this frequency.
Unicom: a communication facility which may provide airport information. Used to communicate with FBO!

Bonus question time!

10 Miles
10 miles out, continue to build situational awareness. Select the runway and make your position and intention
report on CTAF 123.0
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT 10 miles south at 3,000,
landing Runway 31 Ottumwa.”
36Federal AviationAdministration
Hmmm.. That’s not what I expected
the new taxiway to look like!
Continue to monitor CTAF
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT entering
downwind Runway 31, Ottumwa”
37Federal AviationAdministration
Continue to listen on CTAF for other traffic
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT final
Runway 31 full stop, Ottumwa”.
“Ottumwa traffic, N123Q is clear of
Runway 31, Ottumwa”
38Federal AviationAdministration
Should I stopBefore crossing the intersecting
runway?
Am I approaching the boundary of the runway safety area?
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT is clear of
Runway 31, Ottumwa”
39Federal AviationAdministration
I need to stop and look both
ways for conflicting
traffic before crossing!
What marking defines the boundary of the runway safety area?

Planning the departure from OTM
43Federal AviationAdministration
Review OMA diagram:
•Complex layout
•24 hour towered airport..commercial ops
•Anticipated landing runway..based on forecast winds
•Locate general aviation parking
•Anticipated taxi route
Planning the departure from OTM

Planning the departure from OTM
Also be alert to any cautions annotated on airport diagram
45Federal AviationAdministration
Study OTM diagram again:
Determine departure runway
Study anticipated taxi route
Determine run-up area
Planning the departure from OTM
46Federal AviationAdministration
With the winds 23005 KT, you
contemplate an intersection
departure from Runway 22.
23005 KT What questions should you first resolve to help
make this decision?
?X
47Federal AviationAdministration
•Wind direction and speed
•Pressure altitude
•Outside air temperature
•Aircraft gross weight
•Runway available
•Runway surface
•Runway grade
•Environmental conditions
•Obstacle clearance
•Time on runway (back taxi)
23005 KT

Can you accurately determine the runway remaining from
this intersection?
48Federal AviationAdministration
“Ottumwa traffic, N111AX downwind
Runway 31, Ottumwa”
?
Monitor CTAF to gain situational awareness
After engine start
49Federal AviationAdministration
Look at airport diagram and
determine taxi route.
Looks like an easy taxi route to Runway 22
50Federal AviationAdministration
Taxi
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT, FBO, taxiing to
Runway 22, Ottumwa”.
51Federal AviationAdministration
Runway Hold Marking
5
How many runway hold markings would you expect to see on this non-towered
airport and at what locations?
52Federal AviationAdministration
As you approach the runway you
notice this sign array. What
does it mean?
It means you are located at the intersection of Taxiway C and Runway 4-22.
RED..Runway Ahead
53Federal AviationAdministration
It also means that there will be a runway hold
marking painted across Taxiway C
abeam the sign array
54Federal AviationAdministration
Ottumwa is a non-towered
airport. Do you have to stop at this location?
55Federal AviationAdministration
You also notice a yellow
caution sign located next
to the runway hold sign
array.
What does This mean?
56Federal AviationAdministration
It means you could possibly have restricted line of sight to
any or all of the other runway
approach ends.
57Federal AviationAdministration
You’ve decided to use the entire length of the
runway for takeoff. Before entering the
runway for back taxi, what actions
should be performed?
Look both directions for conflicting traffic.
Determine position and intentions of other OTM traffic
Announce position and intentions on CTAF.
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KT back taxi
Runway 22 Ottumwa.”
58Federal AviationAdministration
“Ottumwa traffic, N252KTdeparting runway 22 northwest, Ottumwa.”

RED..Runway Ahead
63Federal AviationAdministration
What did thatTFR say about power plants?
After initial call: “Chicago
center, N252KT 5 west Ottumwa, climbing VFR to 6500 for flight following to
Omaha.”
