Filing Flight Plan
Can someone tell me the procedures for landing at an uncontrolled airport without communications (radio failure)? I can't seem to find it anywhere. Thanks
Yup, as Ryan said, there are none. In fact, you will probably find a few airplanes at nontowered airports that don't have radios to begin with.I only have six hours logged so I'm pretty basic. Thanks for the advice.
Flying NORDO however, a standard pattern and proper entry becomes more critical so that others have a chance of seeing you...so that they can avoid you and you them.
See and avoid is the only requirement!
Fly the standard pattern, left or right, as published.
Keep your mouth shut and your eyes open, it's as simple as that.
If a pilot opens his mouth without a radio, does he make a sound?
Procedure? No radio is required at non-towered fields.
Just remember to turn the wigwag off on the ground....That, I'd have all my lights on (if possible) and be extra vigilant however.
