In this video, we’ll be departing from Tampa Executive Airport, KVDF, located in Class G, uncontrolled airspace. However, communications were not as simple as self-announcing over the CTAF/UNICOM. Listen as we talk to the temporary tower that was in place following a busy event. Then, we transition through the busy Tampa Int’l airspace. What’s the magic words we need to hear when entering Class b airspace? Ride alone to see how it’s done on a beautiful sunset flight.

24.11.2022What’s with all the “executive” changes? I still call Dallas Executive “Redbird”. Love this series! Student here and doing several solo XC’s and these vids have helped. Not necessarily with what to say but how to approach communication.

24.11.2022I actually just bought a GoPro battery door with an opening for the mic adapter – looks like you could use one of those too. I didn't even know they existed.
