Communication:

  • Use CTAF 122.9 MHz.
  • PHX ATIS 127.57 MHz gives good wind and altimeter setting information and can be received while taxiing and in the air.
  • Open/Close flight plans on 122.6 MHZ above 700 ft AGL (Prescott Flight Service RCO) or phone No 1 800 WX BRIEF.
  • The use of a mode C transponder is mandatory (Squawk Code 1200) within the 30 NM Mode C veil of Phoenix Sky Harbor PXR.

VFR Departures:

  • Use radio on 122.9 MHz before entering the runway while on the taxiway. Listen and look for arriving or departing traffic. Attention: the ends of the runway are not visible from the other ends and from some taxiways.
  • Depart to the West (RWY 26) unless easterly wind component is higher than 10 knots.
  • Do the run-up on the runway centerline facing the end of the runway to avoid blowing dust towards houses.
  • After take-off pitch for best rate of climb speed (Vy). For noise abatement reduce power above populated area or at safe altitude.
  • Stay clear of Phoenix Class B Airspace (North of Dobbins Road down to surface, above the runway 3000 ft MSL)
  • Expect turbulence after lift-off when southerly wind prevails.

VFR Arrivals:

  • Announce arrival 3 to 5 NM out on 122.9 MHz. Listen and look for traffic.
  • Land to the East (RW 8) unless westerly wind component is higher than 10 knots.
  • Fly left-hand pattern for RWY 8 or right-hand pattern for RWY 26, both at Pattern Altitude of 1900 ft MSL (~700 ft AGL)
  • Always fly at least the Downwind/Base/Final segments of the pattern. Avoid base-leg and straight-in approaches.
  • Check if the runway is clear during downwind.
  • Always stay South of Dobbins road to stay clear of the Phoenix Class B Airspace.
  • Announce Downwind-, Base- and Final-leg on 122.9 MHz.
  • Expect turbulence in short-final when southerly wind prevails.

IFR Departures / Arrivals:

  • Not recommended.
  • Expect indefinite delays from ATC at Phoenix Sky Harbor peak hours.
