Towair says I'm good, but what are the distance requirements before it is an issue?
I'd like some ballpark guidelines at least. Any tips? Something not in this horrible FCC tech/legaleze nonsense? ----- Original Message ----- From: Glen Waldrop To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2015 7:56 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Towers near airports There is one at 140ft closer to the airport than my planned one will be, only looking for a 50ft mini pop to hit a few houses behind a hill. I'll check out the site. Thanks guys. ----- Original Message ----- From: Sean Heskett To: [email protected] Sent: Wednesday, October 28, 2015 7:35 PM Subject: Re: [AFMUG] Towers near airports i like safely landing rather than getting snagged outa the air by a tower ;-) seriously though, the FCC and the FAA work together to make sure the national airspace is safe for everyone. there are ways to get a tower near an airport if they are in the right spot and/or not too tall as to create a problem. -sean On Wed, Oct 28, 2015 at 6:32 PM, Jeremy <[email protected]> wrote: It is quite a distance away where you are still required to pass the glide slope, and notify them of any frequency changes. I know that every tower that I have looked into building within a couple miles has failed the test in towair. Still looking for alternatives. I just hate all the red tape.
