At an airport with a part-time tower, after the tower closes pilots typically
- A.use the tower frequency as the CTAF and self-announce
- B.stop flying until the tower reopens
- C.switch to the emergency frequency for routine calls
Correct answer
A. use the tower frequency as the CTAF and self-announce
Why
When a part-time tower closes, its frequency commonly becomes the CTAF and pilots self-announce their positions and intentions. Operations may continue, and routine traffic calls never move to the emergency frequency.
