4-1-6 Pilot Visits to Air Traffic Facilities
AIM Chapter 4. Air Traffic Control — Section 4-1, Services Available to Pilots
Official text — AIM 4-1-6
AIM — FAA OPERATIONAL GUIDANCEPilots are encouraged to participate in local pilot/air traffic control outreach activities. However, due to security and workload concerns, requests for air traffic facility visits may not always be approved. Therefore, visit requests should be submitted through the air traffic facility as early as possible. Pilots should contact the facility and advise them of the number of persons in the group, the time and date of the proposed visit, and the primary interest of the group. The air traffic facility will provide further instructions if a request can be approved.
