a. VFR-Plan all arrivals and departures via the N "Y" utilizing<br />
the charted VFR Corridor/Exclusion Area below 7000’ MSL, unless<br />
otherwise directed by Libby Air (KFHU) Traffic Control.<br />
b. IFR - per DoD FLIP.<br />
(<strong>US</strong>A/<strong>US</strong>AASA)<br />
c. Contact Libby (KFHU) Radar prior to entering restricted<br />
airspace.<br />
(<strong>US</strong>AASA/<strong>US</strong>AASA FIL 05-08)<br />
2. Traffic/GCA pattern work may not be approved when<br />
R2303A is active. Expect abbreviated/elongated traffic patterns.<br />
To coordinate for weather observation/altimeter setting, contact<br />
the weather section, DSN 879-2865. Restricted Area/Airspace<br />
Coordination Office, DSN 879-2861, C520-538-2861.<br />
3. CAUTION - HIGH MID-AIR COLLISION POTENTIAL.<br />
Extensive civil/military training is conducted at Sierra Vista Muni-<br />
Libby AAF (KFHU). During peak periods (1600-1830Z and 2000-<br />
2300Z, Monday-Friday), the traffic pattern can become saturated.<br />
Transient military training aircraft may be restricted from, or<br />
limited to a single approach/landing during peak periods.<br />
4. CAUTION - Vehicles on taxiways/ramps may not be in<br />
contact with Ground. Animal hazard exists on all surfaces.<br />
Tumbleweeds on runway/taxiway and ramp areas during periods<br />
of high winds. Bird hazard exists all runways.<br />
5. NOISE ABATEMENT - Avoid overflight of the towns of<br />
Sierra Vista (3 NM SE), and Huachuca City (3.5 NM N). For VFR<br />
arrivals/departures and closed pattern work, climb to and<br />
descend from traffic pattern altitudes as early as possible and<br />
late as practicable. Utilize appropriate power settings and<br />
airspeeds for low noise profiles. Afterburner (AB) equipped<br />
aircraft will terminate AB usage as soon as possible after take-<br />
off/low approach, consistent with safe operation.<br />
(<strong>US</strong>A/<strong>US</strong>AASA)<br />
6. WEATHER - Limited weather service. Forecaster/observer<br />
available 1400-0600Z Monday-Friday, except holidays, DSN 879-<br />
2865, C520-538-2865 or 122.95. ASOS automatic observations all<br />
other hours. Libby AAF (KFHU) weather available on 122.95.<br />
Wind shear possible on final approach to all runways with winds<br />
in excess of 5 knots.<br />
(<strong>US</strong>AASA/<strong>US</strong>AASA FIL 06-07)<br />
7. GENERAL - Airfield services are contractor supported to<br />
meet Army requirement. Expect delays for all service/support not<br />
previously coordinated. Aircraft requiring service/support during<br />
other than published duty hours may be required to provide a<br />
fund cite to pay for contractor/civilian overtime. Base Operations,<br />
DSN 879-2860/2873, C520-538-2860. Classified document<br />
storage not available on the airfield. Transient Alert service is<br />
very limited during duty hours. No cargo off-loading equipment<br />
available. Units utilizing range facility/restricted areas or staging<br />
operations at Fort Huachuca (KFHU) must contact Base<br />
Operations for briefing.<br />

Simmons AAF (KFBG), NC<br />
1. CAUTION - All aircraft contact Ground prior to engine start.<br />
All wheeled rotary wing aircraft conduct ground taxi until<br />
reaching taxiway. High density VFR helicopter traffic within 25<br />
NM of airfield. Frequent static line, free fall and high altitude,<br />
high opening parachute drop operations within 25 NM radius W<br />
of airfield. Traffic pattern altitude Rwy 09-27 fixed wing - 1250’<br />
MSL, rotary wing - 1000’ MSL. See FLIGHT HAZARDS, North<br />
Carolina, Fort Bragg (KFBG).<br />

2. Range briefing required prior to operations in R5311A, B, C.<br />
Orientation flight required prior to any helicopter operation.<br />
Contact Range Control DSN 239-1161/2170 5 working days prior.<br />
Pilots who have not received the required briefing/flight within<br />
the last 12 months will be denied entry.<br />
3. Limited transient service and parking. Refueling delays of 1<br />
hour are common during peak operating hours. Rwy 09 has<br />
threshold displaced 1050’. Departures on Rwy 09 may use the<br />
displaced portion for take-off roll at pilots option. Rotary wing<br />
landing on displaced area is permitted with tower approval.<br />
4. No approved hazardous cargo area to load/unload<br />
chemicals or explosives. Nearest available military installation is<br />
Pope AFB (KPOB). Minimum 5 hours prior coordination required<br />
for hazardous cargo operations. Call Pope (KPOB) Operations<br />
