there is a safety benefit to ensuring that all traffic monitor the same
frequency. When such an area is designated, it will be specified in
the GPH 205.
b. USE OF MANDATORY FREQUENCY AND AIRPORT
TRAFFIC FREQUENCY
(1) When operating in accordance with VFR, or in
accordance with IFR but in visual meteorological conditions,
pilots have sole responsibility for seeing and avoiding other
aircraft at airports for which an MF or ATF has been designated.
Reports shall be made by all aircraft and are either directed to a
ground station, a vehicle operator on the airport, or a broadcast
transmission that is not directed to any particular receiving
station.
(2) Whenever the GPH 205 indicates that reports are to
be made to a ground station, the initial transmission should be
made to the station. When operating outside an MF area and
when frequency congestion prevents pilots from making their
mandatory calls, it is their responsibility to remain clear of the MF
until contact can be established with the FSS. If operating inside
an MF area, the pilot should continue as stated in previous radio
transmissions. Should there be no acknowledgement of a
directed transmission to a ground station, reports shall be made
in the broadcast format unless the ground station subsequently
established two-way contact, in which case pilots shall resume
communicating by directed transmission.
c. COMMUNICATION PROCEDURES AT AIRPORTS WITH
MF AND ATF AREAS
(1) The following procedures shall be followed at
uncontrolled airports within an MF area and should also be
followed at airports with ATF:
(a) Operations on Maneuvering Area. Report
intentions prior to entering the maneuvering area and maintain a
listening watch on the MF or ATF frequency while operating an
aircraft on the maneuvering area;
(b) Departure -
1 Report departure intentions on the MF or
ATF frequency before moving onto the runway. If a delay is
encountered, broadcast intentions and expected length of delay,
then rebroadcast departure intentions prior to moving onto the
runway.
2 Ascertain by radio on the MF or ATF
frequency and by visual observation that no other aircraft or
vehicle is likely to come into contact with the aircraft during
takeoff; and
3 Report departing from the airport traffic
circuit, and monitor the MF or ATF until well clear of the area.
(c) Arrival -
1 Report position, altitude, arrival procedure
intentions and estimated time of landing at least 5 minutes prior to
entering the area;
2 Maintain a listening watch on the MF or ATF
while in the area;
3 Report joining the circuit pattern giving
position in the pattern;
4 Report on downwind leg, if applicable;
landing.

5 Report established on final approach; and

(d) Continuous Circuits -
1 Report joining the downwind leg;
2 Report established on final approach; stating
the pilot-in-command’s intentions; and
landing;
3 Report clear of active runway after final
(e) Local Flying - Maintain a listening watch on the
designated MF or ATF when operating within the area.
