Wisconsin Airport Land Use Guidebook 2011 Wisconsin Airport Land Use Guidebook Bureau of Aeronautics Wisconsin Department of Transportation 6/1/2011 ii This page intentionally left blank Wisconsin Airport Land Use Guidebook June 2011 Wisconsin Department of Transportation iii Wisconsin Airport Land Use Guidebook Preface Welcome to the Wisconsin Airport Land Use Guidebook (2011 edition). This revised guidebook is designed to help communities and airports work cooperatively to plan for and establish compatible land use around airports and work towards mitigating existing incompatible conditions. Land use compatibility is a significant, yet often unrecognized, factor in aviation safety. When asked to describe an airport safety-related matter, many people refer to the perimeter fencing or the security checkpoint within an air carrier airport. Seldom does the average citizen recognize that bright lights, residential developments, wetlands, and tall towers pose hazards to airports, their users, and nearby residents. The goal of this guidebook is to protect communities and airports from incompatible land use that could negatively affect the safe operation of airports and pose hazardous consequences to the public. In this guidebook, stakeholders will find information and resources that may help them direct the future development of their communities and airports. Stakeholders who might find this guidebook useful include airport and community planners; airport owners and managers; zoning administrators; local, state, and regional agency officials; developers; legislators; and the general public.

    IDWEST FLYER M AGAZINE AUGUST/SEPTEMBER 2017 Published For & By The Midwest Aviation Community Since 1978 midwestflyer.com AOPA Takes Issue with Trump’s ATC Plan On June 5 President Donald Trump characterized U.S. air traffic control as being “an ancient, broken, horrible system that doesn’t work” during his remarks calling for privatization. These comments were surprising given the fact that the American system handles orders of magnitude more traffic than any other in the world at efficiency and safety levels and costs per operation that are second to none. While AOPA is open to proposals aimed at making the air traffic control system more efficient and delivering technology in a timely and cost-effective manner, we have consistently said we will not support policies that impose user fees on general aviation. Additionally, we are also concerned about the impact of these proposed reforms on general aviation based on what we have seen in other countries. As a 2016 study by Delta Airlines said, “nations that have privatized ATC have seen operational costs increase at a much higher rate than has been seen in the US under the FAA.” We will continue to work with the administration and members of Congress including the General Aviation Caucus to protect the freedom to fly and ensure that safety, access, and costs are protected and addressed. Keep checking AOPA.org for the latest. Mark R. Baker President & CEO, AOPA *For more information on the Aircraft Owners and Pilots Association and the issues that affect your flying go to www.aopa.org today.

Go With the Flow 6:30 p.m. A Presentation by CFI John Dorcey Room 104A Fox Valley Tech College From AOPA Flight Training, an excerpt from an article by Robert Rossier on Flow Patterns: Aviation Campus “Dealing with emergencies is a problem the airline industry has grappled with for decades. One approach 3601 Oregon Street used by airlines to rapidly respond to emergencies, as well as conduct routine operating procedures, is the Oshkosh, Wisconsin use of flow patterns. A flow pattern is a systematic approach that uses a specific physical pattern to help the Next Meeting: pilot complete a procedure. When a flow pattern is followed for an emergency procedure, the checklist is Tuesday, March 3 used on a time-permitting basis after the completion of the pattern to ensure that no steps or items were Details here omitted. Thus, the checklist is truly a checklist and not a do list. Using a flow pattern offers three distinct advantages. First, by following the pattern prescribed by the flow, a pilot is less likely to overlook or forget any step in the procedure. Second, a flow can be more easily and quickly learned than a written procedure. Finally, the flow can be completed very quickly since the pi- lot’s time isn’t divided between reading a checklist and performing tasks in the cockpit. In some emergencies, particularly when there is only one pilot, there simply isn’t enough time to get out the checklist and read it before the flight comes to an unscheduled end.
