    I always remember the classes as:
    A = Above everything (18000 and above)
    B = Busy
    C = Controlled
    D = Do talk to them (if they are there)
    E = Everything else
    G = Ground (near the ground)

    Question. The class D airspace at the airport I have been at recently goes to 3200 feet however there is a class bravo ring above it that starts at 3000. How is the class D ring higher? shouldn't it be listed as [30] or something? airport elevation is 700' so maybe that has something to do with it (700 + 2500)?

    Hey F8ma! I have a question. I know the requirements for each class airspace, but when I get in the air, I have a hard time applying the requirements to real flying. Any tips?

    Good video, but what is the purpose of the dotted class e airspace that you mentioned, that is attached to the north east of the class d?

    • @fly8ma.comflighttraining199
      @fly8ma.comflighttraining199  7 років тому +1

      Class E airspace that starts all the way at the ground as opposed to starting at 700'agl or 1,200'agl

    • @colinvalenta8294
      @colinvalenta8294 7 років тому +1

      vadermike777 They put class E to the surface there because there is likely an instrument approach that passes through there that needs more separation than typical class G airspace provides that you would otherwise see there.

    bugs me why some pilots switch to a singing voice when communicating. Why the tendancy to do the long vowel sounds at the end of every word? 5:05 - 5:30 Just talk to the controller or broadcast like you were talking in the rest of the video.

      FLY8MA.com Flight Training is that true? Near DFW nearly all class D airports require you to contact approach

  • @aztecwarrior6284

    so if tower says " contact tower at point 9" that means 121.9?

    • @cm101490
      @cm101490 7 років тому +3

      Aztec Warrior that is correct.
      When ATC leaves out the preceding frequency and only gives you a point number, then they assume 121.

    • @jimstanley_49
      @jimstanley_49 6 років тому

      Just a bit more clarification. If the tower frequency is 118.2 and they say GC is on .9, that means 118.9, or 121.9?

    That pilot spoke very fast, poor girl was just sitting there, probably thinking it was her last flight! WHY do most people think they have to call over a radio quickly?
